Recently I saw the Avengers Infinity War movie. It was so much fun, mostly because rather than focus on any character too much it balanced a great ensemble cast. And there was a great balance between so many emotions, with humor, rage, and sadness all mingling together. So I decided to ask the age-old question,
It’s time for another face-off, this time Nicolas Cage vs. John Travolta style! You don’t know who is who! That’s right, my wife and I did a semi-blind tasting to compare two similarly priced Pinot Grigios. The Travolta of this match-up is the Kendall-Jackson Vintners Reserve Pinot Gris (2014), a California wine made in the
So Netflix made a smart move and released a re-cut Season 4 of Arrested Development. The show is genius, but they pretty much botched Season 4 originally (in my opinion). I’m halfway through the re-cut though, and they really redeemed themselves so far. It’s actually made me excited for the upcoming 5th season. Sticking with
So I just saw Deadpool 2, it was solid. Probably better than the first, and what I especially liked is the trailers didn’t spoil any of the awesome surprises. I feel like the movie was time and money well-spent, which inspired me to review a value wine next. I picked the Quinta De Cabriz Dão 2014,
So occasionally, nerds go out in the world and get some sunlight. I did this with my wife in 2014 for our honeymoon to Paso Robles. It was an awesome trip, they make some really great wines there. One of the places we visited was Eberle, which has a really cool tasting room and vineyard
I grew up a weirdo. I wore sweatpants till 6th grade. I skipped lunch to hang out in the band room. I was truly a black sheep. Tonight when the wild streak hit again, I decided to try something a little different. A little weird. So I grabbed this French Pinot Noir that claims to
Last night, my wife and I wanted to set up an epic battle of good vs evil. Doctor vs Dalek!! Superman vs Bizarro!!!!! French White Burgundy vs. California Chardonnay!!!!!!!! Drama in its purest form. We chose two similarly priced Chardonnays: Ty Caton California Chardonnay (2013) and Maison Roche de Bellene Bourgogne Chardonnay Vieilles Vignes 2014
You’ve probably heard that letting a wine breathe does magical transformative things. But you might wonder why pouring one thing into another thing before pouring into the final thing matter? Glad you asked! Decanting is a process where you pour the bottle into a glass/crystal container designed to maximize wine-oxygen surface contact. This process also
I was surfing Netflix and realized there were 2 Sharknado movies I haven’t seen yet! So I decided to binge the 4th and 5th installment of the masterpiece series. I also opened a bottle of 2012 Morgon Beaujolais I’ve been holding onto for such an occasion. This wine is made by Jean-Paul Thevenet and imported
There is a ridiculous episode of Star Trek TNG where Data tries to learn comedy. He starts out by imitating a really dumb slapstick routine. Think old-timey pie in the face comedy, terrible puns and all. Just over the top. I’m pairing that episode with The Crusher Petite Sirah 2014 from The Central Valley of
