In between there will be roaming the California coast from Santa Barbara to Solvang, Paso Robles to Monterey. My cameras and notepads are at the ready, and I’m jonesing for adventure.

What’s Coming Soon!
Of course, there are some wines that are made to be horrific on purpose, and I don’t mind slamming them. With enthusiasm.
Drugstore Wine, Screwcap Corkscrew, Chinese Merlot
There were no smiles, just puzzled, furrowed brows. Except for mine, of course. I had a barely-contained evil grin.
Pinirvana (That’s Pinot Nirvana)
The finish was exquisite, lengthy, and sensual, which gave me a “moment” which the men around me immediately noticed.
Marche Bacchus – Ideal Alternative to The Strip
My friend John Curtas of Eating Las Vegas fame told me in my early Vegas Wineaux blogging career, “don’t review a restaurant after only one visit.” Well, he’s a genuine restaurant critic with years of experience, and except for the occasional stellar or stinky incident, I have taken his advice to heart.
Atascadero Wine Trail
If they make it rich, then kudos. If they don’t, I can imagine that they would continue to make wine until the very end.
San Luis Obispo Wine Trail
There are scads more “wine trails” in the Paso Robles/Central Coast area than I thought was humanly possible.
I must be nuts.
Bobby Flay is Not a Wine Guy
Before I go into my rant – which newbies may see as shallow, opinionated, narrow-minded, and snobbish, and I’m good with that – I just want to make a couple of things perfectly clear.
Avila Beach Wine Trail
Okay, since driving wasn’t involved, it was actually wine drinking. Staggering home is not illegal. At least as far as I know.
Santa Maria Valley
You won’t regret it and you’ll taste wines that will make you take a step back (The Wineaux Guy™’s term for a really good wine that stuns you).
Vegas Wineaux Samples Policy
While my reviews are focused largely on wines that I have purchased, received as gifts, are a part of a wine club shipment, etc., I accept samples for tasting and review.
From the Archives: Who, What, and Why is The Vegas Wineaux Anyway?
Assuming that these questions come from a place of really wanting to know – as opposed to trying to get me to stop – I can think of only one answer: Passion.
