I'm Back!

It's been awhile since by last blog. Busy summer and travel to Alaska has taken priority. With the Fall upon us and the holidays coming on strong.....It's time to think, talk about and most importantly, DRINK wine. Carol, Lauren Peterson and I attended the premier of the 2009 Mollydooker Lefty series. The affair was held at Alba, a very good restaurant in Malvern, Pa. We all enjoyed the Blending clinic and tasted thru the 2007 Dooker "high lines." I find the Mollydooker a very enjoyable, albeit Gigantic Aussie Shiraz. I have found that although I still enjoy the Big Dookers, I do prefer a more stuctured, refined wine such as the California and Northern Rhone Syrahs. You should really taste them side by side to understand the real diversity of the varietal.
