So Cameron Diaz is shooting a new movie called The Other Woman. She plays a woman who finds out her boyfriend is married and and then teams up with his wife to get revenge on him, but then he’s even cheating on them with Kate Upton, or something like that. Sounds dumb, and to make it worse … Continue reading
The whole episode was causing me a lot of anxiety because wine didn’t make an appearance until the last scene. Torture! But then it made up for it. First, I don’t like how they’re manipulating me into liking Megan by having her drink wine all the time. It’s obvious and shameless. But I mean, it … Continue reading
A little Barolo as we prep the veal saltimbocca! I don’t usually drink Italian reds but Barolo (made from the Nebbiolo grape) is good. Also, very expensive. For my own palate I’d usually buy another red for the price but people do go crazy over them. Medium body for a red, tart cherry, and great … Continue reading
So here’s a fun one for Friday: Spirit Airlines is now serving wine in a can. It’s from some wine company called Friends Just Wine. As if canned wine doesn’t sound bad enough, it comes in barfy flavors like Grape Melon (um, yeah, all wine is “grape”) and Strawberry Moscato. Apparently cans are easier to … Continue reading
Sex. The City. And Champagne. Laurent Perrier to be specific (yum). I just did a SATC #tbt last month but I didn’t realize it’s now the show’s 15th anniversary, debuting 15 years ago today! The girls were partial to the Cosmo of course, but you know if it took place today they’d be rocking the grape … Continue reading
So much good stuff this month! First, lots of travel and wine-drinking all around the world: Gwen had this Malbec rosé in Brazil Leah went all over Napa Ed kicked it in Costa Rica (don’t you want to be there right now?) Annie popped mini bubbles on Nantucket Roxy snapped this wall o’ wine in … Continue reading
We all know how fun the wine sippy cup is – now there’s a super-sized one for even more summer awesomeness! And in a grapefriendy purple. The even better news is that 3 lucky grapefriends can win one! I could just do a boring sweepstakes giveaway, but that’s not the grapefriend way. And since everyone … Continue reading
I’m changing the name of the show from Mad Men to Mad Grapefriends. Once again, no wine in the whole episode. Started out per usual with Don sippin on the brown juice. But all was downhill from there, even for cocktails really. Don could’ve been drinking wine out if that high tumbler by the pool, … Continue reading
Even though we’re about to get full-force on summer, I have a perfect spring wine. It’ll also be good for summer, but there’s something about Grenache Blanc that is super springy. That might be because it has an amazing scent of hyacinth and honeysuckle flowers. It’s also got good white peach and yellow apple flavor. … Continue reading
Lots of gifts are given to the president. I mean hell, I get gifts and I’m just grapefriend so you can surmise that the leader of the free world gets some killer swag. Let’s just concentrate on the wine-related ones though, and see which country is the biggest grapefriend: portugal Professor Anıbal Cavaco Silva, president of Portugal: W&J … Continue reading
