2003 Wine Oak Vineyards Syrah, Napa Valley

Tue, 26 Feb 2008 09:17:43 PST
Syrah was the winegrowers’ darling just a couple years back but now it seems like the stuff just won’t sell, so everywhere you turn there are great deals to be had on California Syrah. Problem is, they are mostly pretty tasty, but mostly taste the same - ultra ripe, ultra oaked, very non-varietal. So they are good if you like rich, ripe red wine at budget prices, but not so good if you like Syrah that really tastes like Syrah. This wine is being blown out at Safeway here in NorCal for under t

Wine for Your Valentine

Tue, 05 Feb 2008 09:47:51 PST
The month of February is the month to show your loved ones how special they truly are. Of course we should show appreciation every day but in reality we don’t. It is not because we don’t care or we don’t want to. The fact of the matter is that we are often so caught up in our everyday lives that we may forget to appreciate the ones we love.

Wine Racks - A Guide To Home Wine Storage

Home wine racks are specially designed for storing bottles of wines in a horizontal position, to help preserve the quality of the wine. Storing your bottles in a wine rack is a great way to prevent the corks from drying out. If this happens, the cork can shrink and let air in, resulting in oxidization, which will spoil the taste. Wine storage racks usually have separate compartments for holding individual bottles, allowing gaps between each one to allow air to circulate. Ideally, wines should be kept at a consistent temperature of around 55 degrees farenheit, with a relative humidity of 70%, away from light.

If your wine collection is growing rapidly and you don't have a wine cellar, then there is a huge choice of wine racking that's designed for home use. If you'd like to keep a few everyday bottles within easy reach, then wall mounted wine racks offer a solution. This type of rack is hung on the wall, which saves space, and allows you to always have a couple of bottles on display. Often, these racks come with built-in stemware holders, so you can conveniently keep your glasses in the same place. Wall wine racks are generally pretty cheap to buy, at around $40-$50.

Other types of rack include compact designs to fit on a counter top, or stackable towers to place on the floor, whose capacity can grow to meet your storage needs. Wooden wine racks are very popular, made from all sorts of wood, including pine, oak or mahogany. For a more contemporary look, a metal wine rack can be an attractive feature in itself, made from ornately crafted iron, stainless steel, chrome or aluminum. Whatever the style of your d?cor, there's sure to be a wine rack design that fits in perfectly and provides you with a functional way to organize your wine collection.

Whether you're after a DIY self-assembly kit, or a custom wine rack, online stores are full of all kinds of wine racks to suit your budget and your wine storage requirements.
