		<description><![CDATA[I have a suggestion for novices who find themselves in possession of the wine list at a restaurant but at a loss for what to do with it. Before I break it down for you, though, I have three caveats. 
First, my trick will only work at a certain kind of restaurant, that is, where [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In a landscape of rolling, oak-dotted hills and vineyards producing loads of forgettable wine, one Sierra Foothills winery is determined to make its mark. It&#8217;s called Cedarville Vineyard and it&#8217;s run by &#8220;tech refugees&#8221; and UC Davis oenology graduates Jonathan Lachs and Susan Marks. (That&#8217;s me with Jonathan at their tasting room.) Cedarville&#8217;s acreage is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Normally the words &#8220;emerging wine region&#8221; should merit a wine lover&#8217;s attention. With demand (and prices) rising for well-known labels, emerging wine regions are often the source of easy-to-find, easy-on-your-wallet palate pleasers. Such is the case, for example, with South Africa or Languedoc-Roussillon in the south of France.
Unfortunately, the term can also refer to an [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What if I told you that the best wine list I ever saw didn’t really exist?
No, it wasn’t in cyberspace or science fiction. It was at Fine’s Cellar, a smart restaurant in Phoenix, Arizona I visited not long after it opened last winter. Partly because the paint was just dry, but mostly because the owner [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve had a lucky streak with barbera. Three standout glasses of this Italian-native varietal from two very different places made a recent impression on me; the samples I drank on a recent trip to the Sierra Foothills helped redeem an entire wine region. And unlike in &#8220;Goldilocks&#8221; no personal property was vandalized in my pursuit [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For four days now, I&#8217;ve been subject to a very strange feeling: sobriety. As in total abstinence, not a drop of wine, for 90.5 hours and counting. It&#8217;s not a feeling that I&#8217;m used to, and certainly not one I&#8217;d bring upon myself willfully. (A long weekend-long bender of progressive July 4 parties put me [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s no question that Napa rules when it comes to California &#8212; make that New World &#8212; wine, especially cabernet. No other region outside of France makes red wine as delicious, famous, and collectible as Napa.
That&#8217;s exactly why wine lovers should set themselves a challenge when they&#8217;re pondering a shelf or a wine list: Try [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This wine is the perfect pairing for a pulled pork sandwich. For a wine of its kind, it&#8217;s unusually dark in the glass &#8212; probably due to its hailing from an extra good, warm vintage in its somewhat northerly locale. Blue-black-red color, with aromas of sour cherry suckers, strawberry compote, and tell-tale green pepper. This [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of my favorite California reds is a blend called Generations. It&#8217;s the flagship wine from Charles Krug, better known for making jug wine since the forties and ejecting Robert Mondavi in the sixties after he had a fist fight with his brother and co-owner. (Peter Mondavi, the recipient of the left hook, still runs [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;A rosé? I&#8217;ve never heard of that.&#8221;
Okay: we were in West Hollywood, rooftop-poolside at our hotel, so I admit I wasn&#8217;t swimming in a deep demographic pool of enophiles. I&#8217;d been shocked all weekend, in fact, at how un-wine-savvy the Los Angeles scene is. Even at the popular sushi spot Koi I felt like a [...]]]></description>
