Yes, cheers!

I don't make time to write/read about wine these days, but I miss it, and I miss the fun parts of hashtag-wine-the-other-place.

Makes me happy to see you in the bluesky!

Hey, it's Wen -- @grnlakegirl.bsky.social !!!

Been a long time since #HereFishyFishyFishy was in my feed.

Recommend: if you like wine and fun, follow Wen. Pretty sure my two followers at this point do, but just in case....

Why High-Alcohol Red Wines Pair Well with Spicy-hot Foods - According to Science - GreatBigReds.com If you've heard it's a bad idea to pair high-alcohol wines with spicy-hot foods, read on... you may be surprised.

At Team Great Big Reds, we eat a lot of spicy-hot foods, and we love to pair them with higher-alcohol, lower-acidity wines that we call β€˜Great Big Reds’. (See recommendations for syrah/shiraz and zinfandel below.)
