You probably thought that was a metephor, right? Like, “Oh that Rachel…she’s such a kidder and obviously doesn’t REALLY mean that there is a market out there for products made for doggie wine lovers.”
Well, as much as I’m flattered that you think I’m so creative and witty…the fact is, Dogs Uncorked does exist and apparently […]
I am. I can admit it. I am a spilly drinker. I don’t ever MEAN to be, but…. well, I am. I usually never mind it, but my friends are usually annoyed.
I may have found a perfect thing to counter my spilly drinker-ness.
The Cubist Cocktail Set. After all, martini glasses and even some wine glasses […]
According to the Telegraph, France is changing it’s ways and now allows certain wine production techniques that were previously more than just a petite faux pas:
The changes are part of a five-year “modernisation plan” approved by President Nicolas Sarkozy and his government this week, with the aim of grabbing a bigger share of the world […]
I am a huge margarita fan. There was a period of time in my life (mostly my late 20’s) when I couldn’t even stand the smell of tequila - whether in a bottle, on someone’s breath or in a mixed drink. I blame it on my 21st birthday and the bottle of Silver Sauza. Ugh. […]
I will never forget the first time I was introduced to one of my all time favorite white wines, Ballet of Angels. There I was pondering the what would go best with a vegetarian sloppy joe (so. good. you don’t even know.) when my eyes fell on this.
Creepy Baby - semi dry white. $8/glass

We’ve had a brief respite of sun and warm weather in Vancouver, and I’m so very excited. I’m really in my element when the sun comes out. If I had my druthers, I’d follow the sun all year round.
When the sun comes out, I go looking for a warm weather drink. Sometimes, I go […]
While vacationing in Portugal, wine journalist Jamie Goode made his way over to the local Amorim lab and took some lovely photos of corks being born.
It’s amazing to see how some of the same processes continue to be used, despite advances in technology and tools to mass create corks. Even with the plastic variety becoming […]
You’ve reached a new level of wine lover when you have a mini wine cellar prominently displayed (and unavoidably shrinking your counter space) in your kitchen. A couple of things to take into account when deciding what’s right for you:
How many bottles do you have - while unlikely that you’ve ventured into a full-fledged private […]
Ever been to a restaurant, perused the wine list and saw nary a bottle that seemed appropriate? And by appropriate, I mean of course:
Something you know/have tried previously.
Something you’ve read about and have been dying to taste.
Something that has a provocatively catchy name (probably involving animals or fine arts terminology) that sounds promising.
Something that […]
Hey there - I’m the Colleen that Rachel mentioned in her introductory post! I’ve been waiting with baited breath for Drinks after Dark to launch, and now we’re finally here!
I’ll be concentrating, for the most part, on cocktails and hard alcohol, the things that taste good, feature recipes and as many cool things as […]
