Based in #yyc, all day long I talk and write about wine. See also @avenuemagazine, @Culinairemag, @citypalate. Generally insufferable.

My 5 year old just called cauliflower "ghost broccoli". I'm 99% sure he thought of this term on his own. He's going to be just fine once he's old enough to be on Twitter.


Autumn colours at @HesterCreek the day. Lovely stop for a lunch and a few wines. #bootcamp18

Spectaular session this morning at the BC wine #bootcamp18. Wonderful explanation of the science of terroir, soil and geology by Scott Smith, with Matt D from @OKCrushPad and @WinePlus .

Wine boot camp. 830am. Masterclass on soils and geology. #bootcamp18 #winebc might need a fitness boot camp after this solid week of food and drink....

What a way to start a day in #Marche a tasting of verdicchio at @COLOGNOLAWINERY wonderfully tight wines. And a few back vintages to show development in bottle is possible


Tried so hard, but Marcia from @HicksFineWines in #yeg is in this #Marchi video (one frame too late)

Oh hello beautiful. This was a real stand out in a flight of #Marche reds.

Ready to roll. A whirlwind tour of #Marche #Italy about to begin. Tasting dinner and off we go


At the Calgary airport waiting to board flight to Montreal (then Rome), next gate over, one passenger traveling with a cello is causing all sorts of nightmares #whoknew as they try to secure it in the cabin, about 15 gate announcements keeping terminal updated....


Had to pick up some bubbles for a function today, and have to say that @RockyWineFood 's store has a great assortment of well-curated bottles. Bought some cava, prosecco, and grower Champagne. #bubblepig #yyc


A killer lineup from Weinert today. Argentina treasures.

It's been 25 years since Alberta liquor stores were privatized. Is the system still working? We ask @cowtownwine at 6:45 a.m. #cbcradio @CBCCalgary


Finally stopping in at @OTbrewing_co in #yyc lovely, crushable pilsner and very floral, balanced and clean pale ale, along with damn tasty IPA. Good times
