I can’t believe another week has gone by. For some time now, the frequency of my postings has been anemic. When I’m busy with activities outside my blog, it must appear as if I’ve lost interet. Or decided my professional experience qualifies me as a presidential candidate. But in truth, I’ve been teaching a lot of wine classes, which I enjoy, and tending to administrative duties, which I do not.
But today’s big news is that we’re adding a great new winemaker to our bevy of wines being poured at Tastes of the Valleys our wine shop and tasting bar in Solvang. Doug Margerum is the talent behind the wines of Happy Canyon Vineyard (Barrack’s Chukker, Piocho, Ten Goal and Brand) that have proven so popular with our customers, but he also produces ultra-premium wines under his own eponymous label.
Soon, you can taste Doug’s wines regularly at Tastes of the Valleys. Until then, here’s a video clip of Doug introducing his approach to Sauvignon Blanc, which is absolutely and very simply delicious:
We could not be more pleased!
Cheers!
