Highlandtown Wine Festival












So I entered the zin in the wine contest for the Highlandtown Wine Festival last weekend. What a hoot - we had an absolute blast. The wine was selected as the 3rd place winner (out of 18 in the red category) behind entries from Mr. Dominic Parravano and Mr. Dominic Petrucci. Both gentlemen also won the white wine contest although they switched places. They pretty much win every year so I need to get my hands on some of their juice. ;-) That's Baltimore City Council President Stephanie Rawlings-Blake who has asked me to send her a bottle. How about that!?

Another Thought For A Day

"Wine to me is passion.
It's family and friends.
It's warmth of heart and generosity of spirit.
Wine is art.
It's culture.
It's the essence of civilization and the art of living."

--Robert Mondavi
