Pairing Wine With My Life's Adventure

REINVENTION: Quit my job in IT, sold my house and moved from Cal to NYC for sommelier classes. GETTING MY HANDS DIRTY: Moved to Napa and worked in a vineyard making wine. TRAVEL: Through France and Italy on a wine scavenger hunt. Sto cambiando la mia vita e desidero imparare circa vino. Je change ma vie et je veux me renseigner sur le vin. TRY TO GET SERIOUS: Living in New York for 4 years and working as a Sommelier. NEW GOALS: Do my own thing, find love, speak Spanish, live wine.

U2 and a pinot noir from Isreal

So thanks to my friends in So Cal, I got to hear part of the U2 concert on voicemail. Sounded amazing and I love you guys for thinking of me. Too bad a few nights ago my ex boss and Mojo were shut out from the San Diego shows b/c of people wanting $200 for their tix. Thanks for trying. Bono if you're reading this on a break back stage, I'm ok if you leave tickets at will call...

New pics from Time Square. Click on the link to the right for MAG's pics. I'll be updating as much as possible. Met a nice cart vendor named Mustafa out at the square. He makes his own little sausages from a down-home Casablanca recipe. He said he wanted to marry me, I told him I couldn't commit and I was happy just eating his sausage. For all you that made fun of my hot dog cart idea, well he's doing pretty well. And for all you others, I say try a Pinot Noir from Tishbi Estate, it's a 2003 from Shimshon in Isreal. I liked the dark, dark cherry flavor combined with earth and chocolate. You could sense the dry soil it came from, but it might be hard to find because of low yeild. It's rare that I've had wine from Isreal, if you have please write me and let me know. I loved it and want to get more.
