ViciVino.com Goes Live!!!!

Dear Reader,
ViciVino.com is live! This
is my new company. ViciVino.com is a website dedicated to help
you learn more about wine: traveling in the different wine
regions, wine making, drinking wine, or pairing wine with food.
In addition to the basic information about wineries in the various wine
regions, there is information about lodging, dining, spas and other
activities. Moreover, if you become a Julius Caesar Club Member
you will find additional information about the all those categories to
help you better enjoy your wine tasting experience. Information
such as who is kid-friendly, where you can go with your dog, what
wineries offer picnic areas, and what amenities are offered at the
different lodging facilities. (We are having a Launch Special: if
you become a Julius Caesar Club Charter Member by September 30, 2008
you will not only receive one FREE 3-day personalized itinerary and a
ViciVino.com wine tote bag, but you will also receive a ViciVino.com
wine/beverage opener.) Click here for more details.
Other website features include:
Ask the Winemaker
in which our dedicated consultant (our son Brandon who is the assistant
winemaker at Dutton Goldfield winery) answers your questions.
Vineyard Views where we interview wine industry personalities.
Food and Wine Pairing where we have paired recipes with different wines we have enjoyed.
To be in the 21st century we have included a blog.
We hope you come here often and write about your wine experiences,
whether in a restaurant, at a friend's party or at a winery. You
can also respond to a complete stranger who has posted about their wine
experiences.
What makes ViciVino.com stand out is our travel
planning service for various wine regions. We will provide
personalized itineraries for your wine region adventures, whether for
one day, a weekend or even longer. Answer the Itinerary Questionnaire on the website and we will design a trip just for you.
If
you would be so kind to pass this newsletter along to as many of your
friends and family who you think would enjoy learning more about wine
and the experiences that traveling in the different wine regions offer,
we would greatly appreciate it.
We will send you periodic
newsletters to update you and keep you informed with our most recent
adventures and snippits of what's going on in the wine world.

Don't worry, drink happy!™

ViciVino.com spoke with Jim Frost, co-owner and winemaker of Hidden Creek Winery. In discussions at both his winery and the tasting room,
he discussed his wine/food upbringing in England (Parsnip wine?!),
which wineries/wines/regions have influenced his winemaking, and his
goals for Hidden Creek.
