My customers are the best! This weekend, I had the opportunity to pour some Bordeaux wines for HEB in Houston.

The quality of French wines is so high that everyone who stepped by my table for a complimentary tasting of Les Legendes Bordeaux seemed to love the wines.

Hope to see you at my next tasting soon.

tip: Plan a trip soon to the Santa Barbara Wine Country. The wineries, towns, and people are fantastic.

Tonight, we opened a 2021 Spear vineyard estate pinot noir. The wine was a little on the young side but still had a nice balance of acidity, red fruit flavors, and earthy terroir.

The winery is located between the towns of Buellton and Lompoc along Rte. 246. It's one of my favorite places to visit. The views and wines are excellent. Wait to you taste their Chardonnay, wow!

dined at Lao Sze Chuan in Montrose. The food was delicious as always! Great service.
