Brunello di Montalcino Tasting w/ Laura Brunelli @ Maslow 6

If you have ever tried a good Brunello di Montalcino, you know it is a special wine. I had the fortune of meeting a very talented producer/winemaker at this wine tasting!

Through her broken English, Laura Brunelli was able to explain many of the processes involved in growing the best grapes and making the best wine… It clearly takes true passion to be a great winemaker. Ms. Brunelli clearly has plenty of it!

This video is very informational and educational, so if you want to learn a few things about Brunello, pay close attention.

Do you drink Napa Cabernet Sauvignon? Most of the

Do you drink Napa Cabernet Sauvignon? Most of them are good, many are great, and some are phenomenal…but who decides which is which? You do. Taste more, but only drink the good stuff!
Honestly, I’m not the biggest fan of Cabernet Sauvignon. Don’t get me wrong, it’s delicious almost every time I taste it, but it’s kinda like a Taylor Swift concert. I love all music, I only dislike a few of Taylor Swift songs, but there are SOOO many other concerts I’d rather spend my money on.
These 3 were all very good.
Matthiasson was a bit too young for my taste per his usual ‘old world’ style, and seemed very fresh, almost slightly reductive. But the fruit was beautiful and reserved, subtly complex. Give it time and you will be rewarded.
Peju was very well balanced easy drinking, certainly the most crowd pleasing of the 3 with the right amounts of oak, acid, red and dark fruits, tannin, and medium body mouthfeel!
Barnett Spring Mountain fruit is bright but intense and complex, pretty unique and special, the tannins are grippy and the fuller bodied of the 3.

Just a quick recap on Shawn’s Birthday Celebrati

Just a quick recap on Shawn’s Birthday Celebration…
6 wines, 3 Italian, 3 Domestic
It was a comprehensive tasting discussing everything from distinguishing varietals from different regions, to trying new and less heard of varietals like White Sangiovese and Longanesi of Ravenna, Italy, to comparing red blends from Italy and California.
Yes, there were #winerhymes 😜
And yes, I got to kick the party into 2nd gear as the DJ following the wine tasting!
Elevating Your Wine and Event Experiences!
Thanks to Shawn and all her guests for letting me share my love of wine and music! 🎵 🍷

Blind Wine Tasting at a Corporate Grand Opening la

Blind Wine Tasting at a Corporate Grand Opening last night was a blast! 3-4 people guessed very close on all 3 wines! Not easy, but well done everyone!! And I even shared the #cabernetwinerhyme 😛 and met up with a great DFW DJ!
Chateau Clinet Pomerol 2015 showed hints of its age in the color and some of the complex aromas, but had excellent fruit balanced with high acid and grippy tannin leading me to believe this wine is just starting to drink well, and has many years of life left in it! #chateauclinet #pomerol
Peter Michael Pinot Noir 2021, very young but after a #doubledecant and at least an hour, this was definitely a favorite among many of the guests. It’s an amazing bottle of well balanced, true cool climate Pinot Noir that will age extremely well over at least the next 5-10 years. That Fort Ross Seaview fruit 😋!! #petermichaelwinery #pinotnoir #madanseuse
Revana St Helena Cabernet 2019, big bold and juicy ripe black and blue berry fruit with or without the decant Firm tannin all the way through. This wine still has plenty of great years ahead of it! #revana #napacabernet

3 reasons to support a #localrestaurant over a #ch

3 reasons to support a #localrestaurant over a #chainrestaurant
1. Attention to detail and a clear mission to serve your clientele.
2. You call yourself a chain (despite only having 2 locations, according to their website?) because you know you are good enough to grow. (If #ferahrestaurant Garland is as good as Southlake, I would drive there to try it…lmk😉)
3. And most importantly, the Chef is thoughtful enough to hand write a note because he didn’t have what we ordered.
He solved a problem before the problem existed. That takes effort, and empathy.
How many chains and big businesses do you know that put forth that type of effort with similar levels of empathy?
I applaud the restaurant for seeing the value in that chef, and I applaud the chef for making great food and his #uncommonsense and #empathy for his customers. 🙌🏼🙌🏼

Tasted some great Italian wines today from a very small importer/distributor that checks all the Notable Wine boxes…
Wineries that care for the earth and vines ✅
Great tasting and balanced wines ✅
High quality wines under $20!!✅ (hard to find)
Many of the wines are well above $20, but still relatively great values for Barolo, Amarone, and “Super Tuscan”!!

Do you want to learn more about Italian Wine? I’ve met so many people who really appreciate a good Barolo or Brunello… but are missing out on Langhe Nebbiolo and IGT Tuscan gems!
And don’t get me started on all the amazing indigenous white grape varieties like Timarossa, Arneis, and Favorita!!!
I’m booking a few more open dates in October- December 2023. Let’s plan your Italian Themed Notable Wine Event! 🎵🍷
