On #NationalWinnieThePoohDay it’s all about pinot noir by @SiduriWines from @SLHWine. This is a big one, with tastes of dark cherry, black tea and cassis and a nose of dark plum, potpourri and tan bark. It’s a good one. @boozychef @jflorez @Kerryloves2trvl @JackConnie

One week until #Christmas. Todays fun is this @SLHWine pinot noir by @WindyOaksEstate. Got this one from @grapelive in Carmel Valley. This is showing aromas of blueberry, leather and nutmeg followed by tastes of Santa Rosa plum, tobacco and clove. Cheers. @boozychef @jflorez

My #SaturdaySelection is a pinot noir by Sling Stone from @SLHWine in @MontereyWines. This is showing a nose of raspberry, hibiscus and orange peel with a palate full of Santa Rosa plum, sage and nutmeg. Good stuff. @boozychef @jflorez @rr_pirate @Kerryloves2trvl

Steve McIntyre @TasteMcIntyre explains the science behind what the wind does to the grapes. Actually causes them to "carbon load", changing their structure effectively "thickening" their skins which is a reason the Pinot Noir from the region is so deep ruby red. #pinksociety
Q2. @TasteMcIntyre What makes the @slhwine unique and makes it stand out from other wine regions in California. How does wind affect the grapes? Tell us about your featured wine. #PinkSociety @jflorez @_drazzari @boozychef
