Hate being cold. Hate winter. One bright spot that utter frigid weather brings me is the perfect moment for whiskey drinking! Whiskey’s like an internal space heater. I’m obsessed – started off with bourbon, ventured into scotch, and just discovered Japanese whisky which is amazing too. Since we’ve got a few more winter weeks ahead … Continue reading
A little break in the South American wine action to bring you some Argentinian cocktail love! On my last night in Buenos Aires, went to this super cool bar called Floreria Atlantico. You have to walk through a small flower shop/wine store and go down these rickety spiral stairs to get to the bar. Loved … Continue reading
Just a little Friday fun. I love the “DESERT – THIRSTY” part! So where would you most want to live based on imbibing? Grapefriend would clearly have to reside in Europe. Continue reading

Today they’re launching their new 1922 Collection with glasses and sunnies named after Duke Ellington, Scott Joplin and Cole Porter. The 20s sucked for wine since America … Continue reading
Aha! Finally found a gif of one of my favorite moments from last night’s Oscars. It wasn’t exactly Jay-Z pouring out Ace of Spades and D’Usse from his seat, but at least Clooney got to knock back. Click here for the GIF of Clooney gettin’ his whiskey. PS, he should’ve tossed him tequila instead. Clooney and Rande … Continue reading
Again, this is a catch-up post but it’s a doozy. Last Sunday’s episode was the official first where no wine was consumed. But being the most amazing drink in the world, it is completely obvious why: the episode was about ugly things, and wine wanted NOTHING to do with it! Joan had her epic moral … Continue reading
