It’s no secret I love Wente... ❤️ I love getting to see how their beautiful property changes with the seasons. From live music in the summer to holiday activities in the winter, there’s something to do here all year long. ✨ They outdid themselves this past weekend, making sure to prepare our stomachs for more holiday bombarding with food, cookie decorating, a hot cocoa bar and of course - so much wine!!! 🍷 #MakeTime to visit @wente - all year round. . . . #wente#wentewine#whitewine#redwine#livermore#livermorewine#livermoreca#livermorewinecountry#bayarea#bayareablogger#sf#sanfrancisco#sfblogger#easybay#eastbayblogger#walnutcreek#winecountry#wine#winetasting#winelover#wineinfluencer#foodblogger#holidays

Rainy days have me reminiscing on Washington wine country. 🌧 @delillecellars was a favorite stop for me. I opened their Chaleur Blanc for Thanksgiving. A white Bordeaux style blend of Sauvignon Blanc & Sémillon, the wine is fermented sur lie in French oak barrels, giving it a “crème brulee” finish - perfect for those looking for a Chardonnay alternative. 🥂 It’s been served at the White House over three administrations & at $35 it’s a remarkable value for the quality. Pairs best with my “Save it for a rainy day” playlist on Spotify at the link in my bio. 🎶 . . . #bordeaux#bordeauxblend#chardonnay#washington#washingtonwine#washingtonwinery#winetasting#winery#whitewine#woodinville#wineblogger#wineinfluencer#selfie#winecountry#newworldwine#westcoastwine#delille#selfie#mondays#winewriter#winelover#winelover#winemaking#winestagram#youcansipwithus #winetravel#nomakeup

Louder for the people in the nosebleeds: WINE. 👏🏼 IS. 👏🏼 BETTER. 👏🏼 WITH. 👏🏼 MUSIC. 🍷 @echoechowine is putting their music where their mouth is and partnering with some of my favorite indie artists like Lord Huron and Real Estate to elevate your tasting experience by pairing music with their wines. 🎶 They also have their own limited edition vinyl record pressed on 12” red and white colored wax - it features tracks from some of my favorites like @yoke_lore , whose music pairs perfectly with their Red Blend. Their wines range from $20-35 and they have awesome holiday gift sets available on their website. It’s a great gift for any wine and music lover in your life - or of course, for yourself. 😉 . . . #redwine#echoecho#redblend#musicandwine#wineandmusic#winery#wineisbestwhenshared#winecountry#newworldwine#westcoastwine#holidaygift#sonomacounty#holidaygiftideas#winewriter#wineblogger#winelover#vinyl#winestagram#winelovers#vinyljunkie#vinyls#vinylandwine#monday#sonoma#youcansipwithus

I recently realized I didn’t know where to start when looking to buy older wines. I’m young, and I’ve been drinking then young. When I posed the question of how to go about buying older wines, websites like @winebid were one of the major resources recommended for finding those oldies but goodies. Hence, my pairing here. 😉 🍷 I’ve partnered with Wine Bid and after using their website I can firmly vouch for their service. I won bids on a few bottles, but the highlights are my birth year, 1994, and my sister’s, 1989, which I was so very thankful to share with her while she was up visiting for the Thanksgiving holiday. Both came to about $35 per bottle. . I’ve yet to open the ‘94, but was pleasantly surprised with how the ‘89 had held up. I completely understand what people mean when they rave about older wines now. I read that ‘89 was deemed “the vintage from hell” but maybe it just needed 30 years to ascend, because it tasted like heaven. Looking forward to the ‘94! . . . #oldwine#vineyard#wine#winery#winetasting#discoverunder5k#vineyards#grapes#winebid#love#fall#flatlay#discover#winecountry#sonoma#napacab#cawine#californiawine#westcoastwine#newworldwine#wineandmusic#bayareablog#bayareablogger#drinkstagram#1994#winenight#vinyl#musicandwine

So I heard through the grapevine that it’s National Zinfandel Day... 🍇😏 Don’t be ~blue~ if you missed out on drinking some today, you can find this one in stores all year round for the cool price point of about $20. You’ll get those common raspberry jam notes in this, along with some cocoa and pepper to keep it from being a full blow jammy mess like some Zins tend to be. This #RabblePairsWith Gold on the Ceiling by the Black Keys, and gold on the walls like pictured. 😉 . . . #discover #discoverunder5k #love #gold #nationalzinfandelday #rabble #pasorobles #pasowine #pasorobleswine #californiawine #westcoastwine #zinfandel #winesday #winewednesday #winetasting #winelover #winecountry #wineinfluencer #winery #winery #winenight #sf #oakland #sfblogger #bayareablogger #bayarea #bayareawine #sfbayarea

the negatives came back... and I’ve got nothing but positive things to say about @tankwinery 🖤 thanks for inviting us out to your last garage sale of the year. turns out pinball and pupusas pairs perfect with your juice. 🍷 . . . . #discover #discoverunder5k #love #vinyl #tank #tankwinery #sonoma #calistoga #vinyljunkie #tankgaragewinery #westcoastwine #monday #mondays #edit #winetasting #winelover #winecountry #wineinfluencer #winery #winery #winenight #sf #aesthetic #sfblogger #bayareablogger #bayarea #bayareawine #sfbayarea

Experiences are everything to me. I’m so happy to see brands catching on to the shift in cultural expectation of experiences and offering more opportunities to explore. This past week, @ubereats invited me to their pilot launch of Uber Moments in SF. Uber Moments lets you purchase tickets for local experiences, in this case a wine and cheese tasting in the city at @jaxvineyards. From a marketing perspective, but also simply as a consumer, I think this is the future. We see it more and more across wine country, and I’m excited to see more opportunities like this closer to home in the Bay Area. Other experiences included things like food making classes, cocktail mixing courses, etc. The pilot for this runs thru the 17th in SF. You can use code “tryubermoments” for $10 off thru then. I’m pretty excited to see Uber moments develop over time. <<< #ad due to brand mentions and comped tickets.>>> . . . #sf#sfeats#sffood#foodie#sffoodies #sffoodblogger#bayareaeats#bayareafoodie#ubermoments#sanfrancisco#cocktail#cocktails#cocktailgram#beverageblogger#bestfoodsf#bestfoodsanfrancisco#bayareablog#bayareablogger#sffoodspot#sfbayarea#wine#wineandcheese#winetasting

DIY Tip: Drink a bottle with a dope label. Stick some seasonal shit in it. Done. Bonus points if it’s a @tankwinery or @rabblewine bottle ... but I’m not biased or anything. 😉 Bonus BONUS points if you also scoop up this rad vinyl from @tankwinery for your music, DIY, and wine pairing session. Only $20 AND all profits from this record will go towards the California Fire Foundation, helping victims of the recent California wildfires. . . . #discover #discoverunder5k #love #vinyl #winecraft #diy #sonoma #pasowine #vinyljunkie #sonomastrong #westcoastwine #sunday #sundays #huji #winetasting #winelover #winecountry #wineinfluencer #winery #winery #winenight #sf #vinylrecord #sfblogger #bayareablogger #bayarea #bayareawine #sfbayarea
