Keeping a Master List

I recently moved to a medium sized California town about 10 miles from Napa. Ah....yes. You are right; my life is good.

I love to write and drink wine -- not at the same time, usually. So, I thought it would be nice to keep a list of all the wines I try and wineries I visit. Let's be honest, after you drink quite a bit of wine, you don't have the best memory. It is important to write things down!

The list has begun...I will write down every bottle consumed for as long as we live in the area and share the results with you. Keep in mind, I'm just a normal chick who likes wine. Perhaps along the way, I'll learn fancy words and be able to use them correctly in a sentence...words like tannins...but until and unless we'll be working with the basics. An example would be, "I liked this wine because it tasted really good." Or, "Don't drink this wine if you don't like the taste of oak, because it is like sucking on tree bark."

Got it?
