At this point there’s a season of Real Housewives on at any given moment and pretty much all of them are grapefriends. Copious amounts of wine have been poured in every city and every season, so it’s no shocker that so many of the women are now hawking their own wines. Although I’ve read about … Continue reading

this kate moss news is ab fab
I’ve posted many times already about Ab Fab, and it’s not like you even need me to tell you that Eddy and Pats are massive grapefriends. But news came out that Kate Moss is going to do a guest spot on their upcoming special episode for Sport Relief (a charity thing), set to air on March … Continue reading
big ang pours wiseguy wine
You know Big Ang, the multi-pack-a-day-smoker-voiced woman on Mob Wives? Yeah, well she’s a grapefriend! She runs a Staten Island bar called The Drunken Monkey, and also recently told Food and Wine that she cooks dinner for 10 to 15 people every Sunday. “Good food is the way to a wise guy’s heart,” she said to F&W. “I’m the … Continue reading
update: gosling not single. go drink a blend.
Despite the post yesterday that said Ryan and Eva Mendes split – you know, the one that had girls skipping down the sidewalks and going to buy their single vineyard wines – it is, in fact, not true. My friend at US Weekly who’s like the celebrity CIA said all the reports were false. So … Continue reading
opposite night on the bachelor finale
So as was heavily rumored, Ben chose Courtney last night on The Bachelor. That wasn’t surprising to me since she played a masterful game of “wed the winemaker” all season – except for last night. Suddenly she’s all, “Oh, I’ll just have coffee” while Lindzi’s all “Let’s day drink!” Maybe this, however, was Courtney’s masterstroke … Continue reading
hey girl – you deserve a grape today!
Did you hear all that whooping and shouting this weekend? Girls across America freaked out upon hearing that Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes broke up. Ryan hightailed it to South Africa, claiming he needed “time to think.” (That time did, however, include dining with a German model – this guy’s a real Kant.) But just … Continue reading
happy 15th anniversary, buffy!
March 10, 1997 was the premiere of “Buffy The Vampire Slayer,”15 years (and one day) ago. And how many things do Buffy and wine have in common? I thought only one: me, as in I’m obsessed with both. But after a bit of digging around I now know the real answer: two. I found a … Continue reading
paris, fashion, parties, wine
Just a quickie of some wine/fashion pairings from Fashion Week in that city near French wine country. McQueen Outré and gray. Perfect for Bonny Doon’s Vin Gris de Cigare. Winemaker Randall Grahm’s a rule breaker in Santa Cruz, and the wine is Vin Gris (“gray”) – even though it’s a rosé. Maybe Gaga will be … Continue reading
#drunkygaga wants her very own wine now
Lady Gaga was in Sonoma two weeks ago, and shockingly not one person reported on what wineries she visited or wine she drank. All we know is that she had a cocktail at The Girl & The Fig restaurant. Um, ok, but not quite what we’re looking for. Now it comes out that she wants … Continue reading

“I prefer to stay home and have a nice little beverage and watch television. My glass of wine and I are besties.” – Mila Kunis in this month’s Harper’s Bazaar Continue reading
