Hi Natalie, March 4, 2011

These wine picks feature many under $15 wines from Chile and Argentina that I've scored 89-90 points, robust reds from northern Italy that are perfect for pasta and lots of mouth-watering, zippy whites for St. Patrick's Day.

The World Winery Directory now has a comprehensive listing of wineries for both California (2,645) and Oregon (390). You can find pictures, insider notes, contacts, Twitter and Facebook and other info to plan your visit or buy the wines they sell. If you represent any of these wineries, please e-mail me to add more details to your homepage on the site.
 
Do you have friends, family or colleagues who also love wine? You can suggest them to me for this newsletter. I'll send them a quick note to let them know what the newsletter is about.

This week's newsletter features tips on pairing wine with seafood and other dishes.
Natalie
