I have been surprisingly sober for the last few weeks (okay months...) and thus, haven't been posting. In lieu of an apology, here is a link to a really great post about How To Drink Wine from the wonderful blog, A Cup Of Jo. It has some great little tips in it and the illustrations are fantastic!

To me, wine etiquette is important insofar as it is useful. Most wine etiquette, if not all, stems from (wine glass humor!) practices that make wine taste better. Try out some of these tricks on your favorite vintages and see what a difference it can make! Some wine rules can seem archaic and not make sense for anyone or just for you specifically. (I hate people who swish and hmmmm and sniff all while obviously focused on whatever film I have so expertly selected or the conversation at the next table over. If you're here to drink... own it and drink, already!) Keep in mind that rules are made to be broken!
Expect a new pairing in the next few days! (And don't forget to check out other great posts from A Cup Of Jo here: http://joannagoddard.blogspot.com/ )
