My Opinion: Local Wines are for Drinking

9 years ago

Updated. I wrote this post in early 2012, but thought it deserved to be revisited and updated. Philadelphians are justifiably quite proud and vocal about their (our) local beer scene. It is...

It's not everyday my work appears in the NYT, on CNN, or Haaretz. But, it also isn't everyday that this type of find is announced. I excavated these bones between 2002 - 2008, and determined they were hybrids. Now, that has finally been proven via DNA.

Aww, RIP Sidney Poitier. To Sir With Love was one of the first movies I ever really liked and watched multiple times.

Thanks, @phillyinsider, for providing the medium. I really dislike QR code menus for the reasons I gave here. What about you? yea ir nay?

Did anyone really think this wouldn't be on my list of favorites??? #lebnat from @merselwine. The Gold #petnat from #lebanon is on *my* NYE menu. Citrus, a hint of the tropics, fine bubbles... A little birdie told me it is available in the @rexphl bottle shop tonight (along with other goodies!) for your NYE needs :)

This wine has been one of my suprise favorites of 2021. It started on the menu @jetwinebar and now it is at @rexphl. @kivelstadtcellars #carbonicmaceration #syrah drinks like a savory gamay and pairs beautifully with #hoppinjohn, #shrimpandgrits, and #crawfishpotpie.

The first #georgianwine we ever carried at @jetwinebar was @chateau.mukhrani #rkatsiteli back in 2011 or maybe 2012. They remain one of my favorite producers, and a good rkats is just sublime. Like this one! So complex with notes of edamame, tarragon(?), banana, papaya. We don't currently sell this at @jetwinebar but I wish we could. If you find it, get it! #lesdamesphl #ldei #phlwomeninfood #womeninwine #phillywine #ancientworldwine #8000vintages

Want another holiday wine??? the @karaswines Extra Brut is from one of the earliest centers of wine production, #armenia! It is elegant and fine, with the telltale "brioche" of methode champenoise. Get yours from @jetwinebar

What holiday wines will you buy? I'll give one of my faves every day... One tradition is to put an orange in kids' christmas stockings. I say skip the stocking and just give your favorite adult an orange wine, instead :) I have many favorites, but the #orange #merwah from @merselwine, Lebanon, stands out. It is an easy but interesting drinker made from an indigenous grape. It is in the middle in this pic of Emily's faves! buy it from @jetwinebar bottle shop!
