Quality Racks For Your Wine Collection


Visit during off season. November through May is an excellent time. You might be only one of the few guests all day, so the staff can give you some extra time.





Drinking wine has become a way of life for many people, not just for those who live in countries with very cold seasons. It has became a must-have for health-conscious people who acknowledge the advantages of drinking wine regularly. Wine has become a staple drink during parties and even during the family meal.





Wines are classified depending on the type of grapes they are made from, and the area or location of the vineyard. Wine has become a global business and it can be sourced from anywhere in the world. California and France are among the best locations to grow wine grapes.





Families that are in the habit of serving good wine during family meals have found a way to build their own collection. Some even have cellars built exclusively for keeping their wine.





While not all good wines are expensive, there are very good wines that are priced above the regular wines. No matter how they are classified, the choice of wine depends on the taste of the collector or the drinker.

Learn the art of Wine Tasting





Wine collectors should keep their wine collection in wine storage racks, if only to have them ready and available for family and guests. There are plenty of websites that offer different kinds of wine racks. Of course, you can always personally scout around for quality wine racks but if you are too busy to do that, you can make your fingers do the walking and search for wine rack suppliers on the internet.





Internet sites selling wine racks offer then in all varieties and designs, from wood to metal. Some offer discounts and even free delivery of the items. There are sites that offer ready-made wine racks while others allow for some modifications on the designs depending on the buyer.





The nose, knows. Try not to use too much perfume or aftershave. The aroma of the wine is half the fun of tasting.





When buying wine racks, choose one that isn't just attractive or aesthetic for you but also a rack that is strong, functional and can fit your available space for wine storage. Ready-made wine racks can be shipped immediately while made to order wine racks may take some time to produce.





A good quality wine rack doesn't have to be expensive or difficult to create. People who are creative opt to build their own wine racks. This way, they don't just save on the cost of buying one, but they also get the fulfillment of having created their own wine rack.





Before building your own wine rack, you have to decide on the materials you are going to use as well as the design. Make sure you don't over-estimate your capabilities and choose a design that is too complicated. The design should also be able to accommodate all shapes of wine bottles when placed horizontally on the racks. Storing the wine with the bottle neck pointed up will make it easy for you to read the label when getting your winning supply.





To test for a really good wine, swirl it around the glass. Legs or tears are what is left trickling down the glass after swirling. The stickier and longer the legs the better the quality.

Maikammerer Heiligenberg Gewurztraminer Spaetlese - Gold Medal


The Ziegler family has been making wine in the Rheinpfalz for almost 300 years. The current winery was built in 1894 and is now a national monument. Uwe Ziegler, the winery's owner, travels regularly to Australia and California to supplement his wine knowledge and to learn new techniques in wine production. Gewurztraminer is a difficult grape to work with and any mistakes made by the winemaker or damage done to grapes due to weather are easily detected. With that being said, it is a real treat when we find such a well made Gewurztraminer. This 2003 Spaetlese from Ziegler features an intense nose of roses and plenty of fruit on the palate. Gewurztraminer's famous spiciness kicks in on the back palate to make this white sweet wine a truly unique and special among the German wines. GMS03 GMS03

How To Choose WIne Gift Baskets For The Wine Enthusiasts On Your Gift List


On any birthday, holiday, anniversary, or other special event, a gift basket will please even the fussiest recipient. Many of us have a passion for foods, wines, and all things chocolate! With that in mind, wouldn't a wine and food gift basket be perfect for your gift giving needs?

Creating a wine basket over the Internet is not only time saving for you, but it is an excellent way to really personalize the basket. There are many unique spins that can be taken on a gift basket.

Some may feel that a gift chosen online is impersonal. This is not necessarily true. Prices and selections are vastly improved when shopping online, so it is far easier to find a gem of a product that may not be available in your area. Having a wider selection is actually better, as it virtually guarantees that your gift will be one of a kind.

Start by choosing a basket that will suit the taste of the gift recipient. If your friend or family member has a Mediterranean style kitchen, choose a basket in rich earth tones of brownish-red and aqua blues. For country kitchens, opt for a wicker basket. Modern kitchens with stainless steel appliances will look even better with a teak basket. The possibilities are endless.

The contents of the gift basket are also full of possibilities. If the wine connoisseur, you can choose one style of wine, say a Shiraz, and then select a number of Shiraz's from different vineyards. This is an appropriate gift for the wine lover who enjoys picking out the different tones and bouquets found in any variety of wine.

A beginning enthusiast will appreciate a basket with a few varieties of wines so that he or she can start narrowing down his or her favorite styles. You can add some wine glasses, wine charms, and a bottle stopper, as these are items a beginner may not already have on hand.

If you have a local vineyard, they often can put together a unique basket for you. Typical vineyards offer wines with personalized labels, locally produced jellies, handmade chocolate truffles, local cheeses, and even some area breads and crackers. A gift basket from local products can be a real kick for someone from out of town.

Wine is excellent with cheese and crackers. You can look into adding gourmet cheese products, some unique crackers, and other goodies. A great tip is to purchase things you know the gift recipient often refuses to purchase because he or she feels they are too extravagant. The items that a person most desires are always the ones he or she cannot afford.

No matter what a person's tastes may be, they will be thrilled with a wine and food basket. It's a thought that truly comes from the heart.
