		<title>The Craft of Culture - In the trenches of the food and beverage industry.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As the darling of the wine world, many critics set their bar at the iconic region of Bordeaux. Likewise, since a vast majority of northern California vineyards grafted their vine clippings from Bordeaux and claim to have a parallel climate and growing region, California wine houses have historically taken home the gold medal in wine ranking publications. These wines are typically exuding very ripe and high alcohol infused fruit due to hotter temperatures, dehydrating tannins from grape skin contact and barrel usage and vanilla from sweet oak aging. Stereotypes of California juice receiving substantial nods from wine writers have set a standard for aspiring grape crushers.]]></description>

		<title>Château Larose Trintaudon 2005 Rouge, Haut-Medoc - How I compare far too much television to Bordeaux wines.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I should have liked this wine right off the bat when researching the label - their homepage on their Web site looks like a trailer for LOST which usually equals excellence to an epically cultish proportion. Unfortunately, this wine didn’t start out with a bang (or a plane trash, for that matter), it actually started out in doldrums, dragging its feet in a lazy, “I’m Bordeaux and I know it” fashion.]]></description>

		<title>White Heron &amp; Competitions</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At White Heron we have come to realize over the years that people are dramatically different from one another.  This means that anything perceived by the senses is going to evoke intensely different responses from different people.  This also means that no movie, no painting, no music, no wine can be quantified as the ‘best’.  At White Heron we make wine with character because we love wine with character.  We truly believe that every wine has a moment and a food with which, for that moment, it is the best wine in the world.]]></description>

It would be a shame to just turn our backs on so much history.

So you’ve come back. Do you really think you can just come traipsing back into my life again after leaving for an entire summer? You want me to just pick you up again as if everything was fine? Am I really supposed [...]]]></description>

We will serve no wine before its time…but then again, we’re all drunk and I didn’t expect [...]]]></description>
