people say the nicest things
“The writing is witty and fun, and in some cases fairly substantial, delivered by a dedicated blogger who is at it on nearly a daily basis. If you want to read a darn good wine-related blog or have an interest in hiking along with wine, you do want to check out Winehiker Witiculture.”— Tom Wark, Fermentation
“It’s rare enough to find a connoisseur of wine who also is a connoisseur of hiking and outdoor recreation, and even rarer yet to find such a person who is a dedicated blogger ... all of which make this blog a rare find indeed.”
— Tom Mangan, Two-Heel Drive
“Seeking a weekend partner-friendly activity that will build desperately needed ‘spousal points’? Visit the Winehiker’s website and blog—a site devoted to hikes which inevitably end with good food and wine. (Chicks dig that stuff. Guys do too).”
— Tom Chandler, Trout Underground

Nice 7 words; I loved it too, GeologyJoe! I especially loved the Boroli the second night. It is nearly indescribable with its intense dark fruit, floral, cigar and spice flavors. Total decanting time: about 12 hours! But worth the wait for this beauty, which may be an acquired - yet inspired - taste of divinity.
