by Philip M. Anderson It is NOW a tradition that I write a blog post on Super Bowl Sunday outlining some wine I’ve experienced along with my Super Bowl prediction.  After Arizona failed 5 years ago to beat the Steelers and, thus, ruin my upset prediction, I have not missed a prediction, having correctly predicted

by Phil Anderson We had been in Temecula for two days and now we had only our schedules to adhere to, which meant, no schedules at all.  One thing WAS for sure, however.  We were going to do some MORE wine tasting!  We checked out of our somewhat disappointing hotel and decided the first place

by Phil Anderson This is the second part of a three part series about our trip to Temecula wine country. The big day had finally arrived.  All the girls spent the day doing make up and getting their hair and nails done.  The guys swung the sticks on the course.  I tried to find somewhere

Here’s To Good Friends-Part One

by Phil Anderson Remember that Budweiser commercial that stated, “Here’s to good friends, tonight is kinda special….”?  We had one of those nights recently that involved good friends, new and not so new (I try to avoid the word, “old” when talking about people and friendships as they MIGHT think I’m calling THEM old!).

Celebrating A Loved Ones Life

By Phil Anderson This column started out, and has continued to be, about general wine thoughts.  After all, that is why I named this blog the way I did.  But this post will be a little more subdued.  Shelley and I have been together, off and on, for awhile now and I’ve had the privilege to get to know

A Night To Remember
