Cava Fo' Life Dog


N.V. Torreora Cava, Penedes, Spain ($13.95 at Carmel Cheese Shop)
This was 100% Macabeo and a rarity. Go ahead, try not to love it. You'll fail. It's blessed with aromas of lemon citrus and who the f%$# cares. It's good. Trust me. Buy it. We had this on Lindsay's birthday. Before this, we were fighting about nothing, but then we took a few sips and it lead to make-up-sex bliss. Charm your lady tonight. It works.

Savoie

M.V. Bugey de Cerdon – La Cueille Rose’ - It’s floral, viscose and pink! Not everyone has the money for Veuve or Moet. That doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be able to drink sparkling. The grapes used in this are: Gamay, Poulsard, Mondeuse and Pinot Noir from nearby Burgundy Last tasted 2007 Drink now 

Wine and Waves

Wine and Waves
I'm lucky to be a 31-year-old surf punk that gets to sample rare wines like the 1922 Pol Roger, the 1959 Petrus and the 2001 D.R.C. Richebourg--that doesn't mean those wines are always good, or worth the price. Since I've worked as a sommelier (in Monterey, CA) for high-end restaurants like Casanova, the Sardine Factory, and Marinus, I've honed my palate and I can choose a good bottle that won't break the bank. When I have enough time and money, I like to travel with my girl Lindsay Jackson to places with great wine and waves. I'm a certified sommelier (Court of Master Sommeliers) and am available to drink wine. Call: 831-521-8606 or e-mail: pwetterau@gmail.com
