A Greenville Gem: Reedy Falls Park | One Ville to Another
https://onevilletoanother.wordpress.com/2012/03/15/a-greenville-gem-reedy-falls-park
One Ville to Another. Blogging my 2012 move from Louisville, KY to Greenville, SC. A Greenville Gem: Reedy Falls Park. March 15, 2012. For a split second I thought of a cheesy Hallmark title for this blog post –. Falling in Love with Reedy Falls. Thankfully, that would have been misleading… I was in love with the park long before I moved here. The new title is quicker to the point. Falls Park. On the Reedy River is one of Greenville’s gems and will most likely be featured over and over in my blog. Which ...

A place for wine enthusiasts in the Carolinas to talk wine . . . and more! Sunday, April 24, 2011. Ah, wine lovers! Have it tough when we are trying to decide among six gorgeous Sauvignon Blancs (more on that in a post yet to come, on the recent Greenville Wine Meetup "shoot out" spanning France, California, and New Zealand). But life is tougher still, if you've laid claim to the term "Mommy" in your wine branding. Click here. To see the New York Times article. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Vine and Grape: Lucky Thirteen
http://vineandgrape.blogspot.com/2007/06/lucky-thirteen.html
A place for wine enthusiasts in the Carolinas to talk wine . . . and more! Saturday, June 16, 2007. Danny opened the evening with a conference call with David Heitz, winemaker since 1974 and son of the famed founder Joe Heitz. Southern Wine and Spirits representative, Bill Berry, interviewed David about the thirteen vintages, learning that the 1989 and much of the 1990 fruit was from pre-phylloxera vines—before the vineyards were ripped out and replanted. Then the real fun began: tasting! Huge, upon open...

A place for wine enthusiasts in the Carolinas to talk wine . . . and more! Sunday, April 03, 2011. Readers of Vine and Grape. And members of The Greenville Wine Meetup. Know how often we've talked about old world vs. new world; non-interventionist wine growing. Vs interventionist wine making. Balance and elegance vs. bold and alcoholic.

A place for wine enthusiasts in the Carolinas to talk wine . . . and more! Wednesday, August 11, 2010. OK, just for fun—for Vine and Grape readers—I had to post the great T-shirt that Greenville Wine Meetup members Mike and Marci Greci gave me.

Vine and Grape: SWE Evening #2: Science, Wine, and More
http://vineandgrape.blogspot.com/2010/07/swe-evening-2-science-wine-and-more.html
A place for wine enthusiasts in the Carolinas to talk wine . . . and more! Thursday, July 29, 2010. SWE Evening #2: Science, Wine, and More. OK, for now, ignore the photo! I need some sympathy. I'm sitting here thinking how hard it is to taste wine all day. From Champagne at lunch, to Bordeaux mid-afternoon, I switched to beer with dinner. But no, I didn't max-out on wine. Susan and I wanted to try a Washington gastropub we had read about in Food Arts,. And beer is definitely Birch and Barley's. Terms li...
