Some of the grandest wines of this commune are among the longest-lived red wines of Burgundy and require lots of aging to show their best.

The twenty or so participants were representatives from all corners of the Boston wine world and we had come, as the invitation made clear, "to dork-out a bit and really chat about the vino."The vino turned out to be fifteen foil-obscured wines, and ...

By Courtney HumphriesWine-tasting events sometimes bring to mind a stuffy atmosphere, pretentious sellers, and incomprehensible wine-speak. An event in Boston aimed to topple that image, appealing to a younger crowd eager to educate themselves about wine without the added attitude. The Wine Riot, held April 17th and 18th at The Cyclorama in Boston's South End, sought to bring a casual, irreverent attitude to wine tasting and education. The event was presented by The Second Glass, a print and onl ...

'Tis the season.For Grand Tastings, that is.Retailers all around the greater Boston area, knowing full well that more wine is sold during Oct-Nov-Dec than any other time of the year, are rearranging their floor space right now to accommodate tasting tables full of the latest wines to hit their shelves.Why?Because they want you to taste. And taste some more. And, hopefully, you'll find that new special bottle (or two or three or four) that you just cannot make it through the holidays without.Here ...

By Cindy RiedeVeeVee's does not make it easy to just pop in for a glass of wine.Not with their warm salad of chicory, escarole, roasted pears, blue cheese, radicchio, and pomegranate. Not with their fresh ricotta dumplings, herbed spaghetti squash, tomato sauce, and shaved fennel. No, not easy at all.But they do not make it hard, either, to sidle up for a glass or two. That cozy Lilliputian bar squeezed between spiced pumpkin walls. Those ebony wood-framed mirrors reflecting the light of flicker ...

Sometimes a food and wine event is simply NOT about the wine. Last evening was one of those times.Taste of Cambridge, held in Technology Square, had wine, technically speaking. And I even tried some. But it simply did not hold my attention, not up against the food, not even up against the cocktails.Possibly it was a matter of logistics. Taste of Cambridge is a walk-around event and none of us has enough hands to hold a Misty Kalkofen cocktail, a hunk of cheese from Formaggio, a dense chocolate p ...

'Tis the season. For wine. Everywhere you look wine shops all over Boston are hosting their spring-time grand tastings. The "grand" is what differentiates these tastings from shops' regular weekly events. Each shop brings together a number distributors and importers – anywhere from four to ten of them – who each set up individual tables to showcase six to eight of their wines. In other words, your regular Jane or Joe can walk into a single shop's grand tasting and sample some 20 to 80 wines.That' ...
