Fine WinesPosted by admin on January 5th, 2011

My uncle is a certified wine connoisseur – he actually has an extensive wine collection at home and we would often beg him to let us sample some of his fine wines. Most of his collection are gifts from friends who know his love for wine. Though he extensively searches for rare wine and limited edition pieces of some premier wine labels. He once told me that he mostly gets everything from Sokolin.com. The web site is a store where you can buy guaranteed authentic wine.

He occasionally does wine tasting too. Here are some of the things I have gathered from our conversation:
1.During the process of wine testing, cool the wine to the correct room temperature i.e. about 52ºF for whites and 65ºF for reds.
2. Use a thin rimmed glass and ensure that it is free of dust.
3. Fill no more than 1/3 of a glass that should be held by the stem so as to avoid fingerprints and keep the glass from warming up.
4. Check for a clear color by looking against a white background. A Pinot Noir would generally have the glow of a ruby. A Cabaret Sauvignon would be more violet.
5. Gently swirl, sniff, and savor the taste!

A Christmas Gift Idea: Give Fine WinesPosted by admin on September 8th, 2010

We are now in the “-ber” months and that means Christmas is near. It is never too early to start thinking of what to give to friends and relatives, especially if you have a lot of people to consider giving gifts to. One of the most popular ideas to give as gifts is to give fine wines. It is always thoughtful to even bring one when one is invited to one of the many holiday parties which is going to happen.

If you have a boss or an older relative who is a wine connoisseur, a rare wine
or a premier wine would surely make his day. If you find it hard to shop at stores, try finding it online. Sokolin.com has a vast list of wines for you to choose from.

Here are some more ideas for you:
1. Wine Clubs
Enrolling them in a Wine Club is one of the best gifts you can give a wine lover. For the connoisseur, a Wine Club allows the drinker to keep their cellar full as bottles get delivered regularly. A Wine Club also indulges members with inside information, special deals, wine secrets and exposure to rare vintages.

2. Personalized Wine Labels
From giving newlyweds a wine bottle that reads, "First Christmas" to giving your parents one that reads, "Thirtieth Christmas," a personalized wine label invites a variety of positive sentiments.

3. Wine Openers and Accessories
You can give so many accessories. From a wine charm to a set of Riedel wine glasses, from a wine journal to a wine partridge in a wine pear tree, bottles of a favorite wine make great gifts.

EggplantPosted by admin on April 4th, 2008

Lately, I have been craving eggplant. I usually eat it boiled with a little seasoning – like ginger and vinegar. Or I boil it, mash it, mix it up with egg so it can be a patty. It can be such a great and tasty meat extender and replacement.

Right now I want to make Eggplant Lasagna. A friend told me that you would do it the same way as beef lasagna except the eggplants are fried and there are a lot of mushrooms.

I can feel my mouth watering already.
