		<description><![CDATA[I bought this wine from our local wine shop, Arista Cellars, in Edmonds after I noticed the pedigree on the label of the Perrin family of Château de Beaucastel fame. If you&#8217;re not familiar with the name, it is associated with some prestigious Châteauneuf-du-Papes of the past several decades. Their 2005 was a Top 100 [...]]]></description>

Sheri and I were honored to be invited to Steve Maxood&#8217;s Birthday celebration at Wild Ginger Restaurant last Friday night. Steve&#8217;s parties are somewhat legendary amongst my wine friends and he certainly did not disappoint. We prepared for an evening of heavy pouring by checking into the Sherton Hotel just a few blocks from the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rhône varietals are quickly becoming some of my favorite wines. Both French and Central California wines exhibit their own particular characteristics and I love to compare them whenever I get a chance. I tasted this wine a couple of weeks ago and just wanted to be sure the bottle I bought wasn&#8217;t a fluke.  After buying [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Instead of calling it an economic downturn or recession, my wife has started calling it the “new”economy. It seems appropriate since so few Americans remember the Great Depression of the 1930&#8217;s, and for most of us this is something very new.

Another fine wine evening as you can see from Steve&#8217;s photo, but the highlight of the evening were these wines:
1953 Clos Saint Jean Châteauneuf-du-Pape
It&#8217;s not everyday that I get to taste a 56 year old wine.  I have to admit that this is probably one of the oldest wines I&#8217;ve ever tasted and I&#8217;m thankful [...]]]></description>
