Twelve: January 2011
http://twelvewine.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 30, 2011. Nick's Italian Cafe in McMinnville. Nick's is one of our favorite restaurants in the world. And this is a belated note. Since we opened our tasting room in McMinnville and they are about 150 feet up the street, we've been in there quite a bit this year. Twelve is in the 25th Anniversary IPNC. Monday, January 10, 2011. 2008 Twelve Pinot Noir in the Wine Spectator. Dinner with a LOT of wine. Here's the list. I didn't get to try them all. 2006 Carabella - Chehalem Mountains, OR RP86.

Twelve: February 2010
http://twelvewine.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 28, 2010. We had a great night at the Flavors of Carlton Charity Auction. They raised over $52,000 for the town's main charitable organization - Carlton Together Cares. Thanks to Ken Wright Cellars for hosting the event like they have every year. I've just returned from my second consecutive week on the road. One is San Jose - one in Dallas. So there were lots of breakfasts, lunches and dinners. Only two meals stood out (is it me or are all steakhouses pretty much the same?

Twelve: November 2010
http://twelvewine.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 25, 2010. Thanksgiving Weekend Tasting Hours. Sunday, November 14, 2010. We're done with Harvest 2010. Barreled (or barrelled - I'm not sure) the wine from the last three fermenters yesterday. It's been a whirlwind this year. The entire process from the start of picking the first grapes to everything in barrel or tank has taken 25 days. This is two weeks faster than a typical harvest, but we've never picked the entire vineyard in a single day before either. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Twelve: September 2010
http://twelvewine.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 12, 2010. You can see much more color versus last week. This is a picture from the same block shown in the previous post. Monday, September 6, 2010. Clusters are changing color . . . . finally. Slightly blurry picture that I took yesterday of some Pinot Noir clusters. We expect a late harvest, but it's too soon to tell if it will be later than 2008. We picked our last grapes on October 29 that year. Good idea or bad? I may try one this year. I have a little 2008 that I haven't bottl...

Twelve: May 2010

Saturday, May 15, 2010. Every May McMinnville, Oregon hosts the second largest UFO Festival. In the United States (largest of course is in Roswell, NM). Why McMinnville? Saturday, May 8, 2010. If a Tree Falls in the Vineyard When No One is Around . . . And no, the logging described in the last entry didn't knock the tree over. This one was done in by some pretty strong winds - there's a huge chunk of ground standing upright at a 90 degree angle around the roots. Budbreak and Clear Cut. Jory at the Allison.

Twelve: March 2010
http://twelvewine.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 26, 2010. Snowboarded and Didn't Die. Third day (when my brother had to fly back) we had a dream day of spring snowboarding - bright sunshine, soft snow, no lift lines, and temps in the low 40s. We just went until our legs gave out. If only the place wasn't so expensive, we'd do it every year. The exchange rate isn't helping either. I've been there when a Canadian dollar was worth 70 cents US, but it's almost 1 to 1 now. Sunday, March 14, 2010. 2008 White Will Be Bottled Soon.

A Blog About Food, Travel, And The Fine Art Of Getting Lost. Days 49 – 52 Portland & Seattle. September 30, 2011. Portland, OR – Seattle, WA. But by noontime, I had still about 200 miles to ride so I cut inland and headed for the I-5 Freeway to make up some time. I arrived at Portland Motorcycle with 30 minutes to spare. The great folks at the shop threw Bumblebee on the stand and got me on my way in no time. So this was my first visit to the city of Portland, and man, I was impressed! What a great town!

Twelve: April 2010
http://twelvewine.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 17, 2010. When prepared by someone who clearly knows what they are doing like Susanne, however, white asparagus becomes amazing. I grabbed this picture from Wikipedia. Thanks again Susanne and Hanns - you transformed a simple dish with a couple of ingredients into an experience I won't forget. I'm going to invite myself back next April and I'll bring some of my own wine this time :-). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Guide to Willamette Valley Wineries. Jory at the Allison.

Twelve: October 2010

Sunday, October 31, 2010. Robert Parker Wine Advocate Scores for the 2008s. We just got our scores from Jay Miller's Oregon report for the Wine Advocate (Parker actually doesn't do the Pinot Noirs, Jay does). I added a phrase or two from the review along with the score. 2008 Twelve Pinot Noir: "Bright and vibrant on the palate with an edgy, elegant personality" - 89 points. Sunday, October 24, 2010. Tasting Room Grand Opening - November 20. We've been working on finishing the tasting room since we had ou...
