Trump versus Clinton Wine Debate: Vote for Your Favorite!
Last Sunday, we hosted a live video taste-off between three wines from Trump Winery in Virginia and Clinton Vineyards in New York. It was so much fun! You can watch the video replay below by clicking on the arrow for this first (and final) Great Whine Debate … and read the 60+ comments on Facebook … you can still comment and vote ;) This “debate” was focused on the wines (not the candidates), though there was room to wonder if a wine lacks aromas and is going through a dumb stage, to another one having a long, bitter finish. I forgot to mention though that we […]

How I Survived My First Facebook Live Video Wine Tasting
LIVE Facebook Video tasting wine — first one for me… thank goodness I had a drink (or three)! Find the wine reviews here: http://www.nataliemaclean.com/winepicks/search Posted by Natalie MacLean on Thursday, 4 August 2016 I finally did it. I took the plunge and recorded my first Facebook Live video today. No editing, no re-do, no net. Yet this was the most electric wine tasting experience I’ve ever had. I’m hooked. The comments and connection are amazing: https://www.facebook.com/nataliemaclean/videos/10157249028750284/ Click to play the video above and let me know what you think. Cheers!

Romancing the Score: What do Wine Ratings Really Tell Us?
The biggest problem with wine scores is that they evaluate the obvious: how a wine tastes. What really matters is how interesting the wine makes your dining companion. Now that would be worth rating. Indeed, you have to wonder why we rate wine in the first place. After all, it is just a drink. We certainly don’t rate orange juice or lemonade; we don’t have beef shank critics talking about the region from which the cows hailed or syndicated cabbage columnists talking about how the September rainfall affected the leaf set.
