Clayhouse Vineyards

I dont make it a habit of bashing a boutique winery. I dont recall Alan ever beating anyone up either. There's just too much good to be said about the people who dedicate their lives to their passions. But an exception must be made for the above mentioned producer. You're not going to have an epic experience every time you pop a cork *or twist a cap ;), but there should be something about the juice you can respect. No trace of that here.

You'll notice there's no place on avawine.com to buy Clayhouse. I can buy bug and tar remover at Sears.

I should feel guilty. I dont though. Staying at the W Hotels makes me happy. Staying at a regular hotel doesnt make me feel like anything. Usually I'm tired, but that's about it. When I stay at the W I'm seldom (if ever) tired, usually not tired at all. I dont watch much TV while I stay at the W. I can sit around and do not much of anything at the W. There are not many places I can just sit around and do nothing. W Hotels Worldwide happen to some of them. I've constructed a list of some of the others:

Guggenheim Museums. The Beach. The Short Hills Mall.

That's all that comes to mind.
