Parker Jr.’s The Wine Advocate by Joe Czerwinski10 April 2012, 11:11 pm
Published December 10, 2012 Less than a month after a Wall Street Journal article reported that wine critic and former Wine Enthusiast Magazine columnist Robert M. Parker Jr. had decided against various offers for The Wine Advocate, his subscription-supported newsletter, it appears he has sold a “substantial interest” of the company after all. Parker remains [...]... - Wine, Samba and Song at Brazilian Carnaval by Susan Kostrzewa24 February 2012, 4:33 pm
In the same tradition as Mardi Gras— i.e., one last big celebration before Lent for Catholics—Carnaval in Rio de Janiero is about celebrating life through song, dance, and in my case this last week, great wine. I’ve traveled the world and been lucky enough to see some amazing things, but Carnaval, with its sea of [...]... - My GILTy Holiday Addiction by Lauren Buzzeo1 December 2011, 5:46 pm
Many women (and some men) already know about the members-only designer and luxury flash sale site appropriately called Gilt.

When Jerry Seinfeld created his classic comedy series, he vowed that there would be “no learning, no hugging.” I thought about that when I foolishly volunteered to blog about my summer travels and what I “learned” on the road. I think of travel as a process of discovery; learning is absorbed gradually; connections and insights [...]... - Gifting Outside the Box by Lauren Buzzeo27 October 2011, 9:27 pm
The holidays are undoubtedly a special time of year. What other time do you spend thinking about the cherished people in your life, thoughtfully planning out the best presents to get them, until you get so frustrated and/or annoyed that people seemingly already have everything and conclude there’s nothing you can give that they don’t [...]... - Here’s to Better Beer by Lauren Buzzeo22 September 2011, 7:21 pm
Statistics released last week by the Beverage Information Group indicate that overall beer consumption in the U.S. is down, as it has been trending over the past few years.

Recently I tried something delightfully unique: Moët & Chandon’s new “Ice Imperial” Champagne. Ice Imperial is a traditional Champagne (a blend of Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay) with a bit of extra dosage. The extra sweetness lends itself well to being supremely chilled. As such, it is meant to be served over ice. It [...]...
