Fantesca's Double Vertical

Fantesca Estate and Winery has a very generous offering on their previously unreleased Cabs and Chardonnay's. These deals are even better than what we offer on our site, and I strongly suggest you take advantage of their insanity before they come to their senses. A very hefty savings on one of California's hottest boutique wineries. Also and excellent way to become acquainted with a producer who's production is so small, you've never heard of them.

This is an example of one of the artisian brands that gets snatched up locally, and by brokers in the know. You wont find these selections on the shelves of the Quickie-Mart, or even in some of the best wine shops in the country. An absolute gem.

Tater Salad at the Taj Mahal

Saw Ron White last night at the Taj in Atlantic City. Ron White is one funny cat.
Very little material was familiar... and his new stuff was rock solid.
It really makes you think about commitment and dedicating yourself to your craft.
The sum total of failure this guy must have had before he made it to a point where he could make a living must have been amazing. His big break came after Jeff Foxworthy broke through, and took Ron along with him to open his shows. Which seems to sort of be the catalyst for the "Blue Collar Comedy Tour" series. You really dont know when/where/how the tipping point will come about, but if you keep at it, sometimes it happens.
We're waiting for our tipping point here at www.avawine.com . Maybe we can open a show or two for Larry the Cable Guy. Or a publicity stunt of some type. I'm giving it major thought.
