We welcome Mauricio Salton of his own family's winery SALTON HARMONIZA Vineyards here to the store tonight from 5 to 8 PM ... Join us ... enjoy, here are pictures taken later during the tasting that I add now. Cheers,  tony  9/ 11/ 2014

CARLA was just here , just after ERIC actually, Eric came in asking us for a
twenty/year old single malt that he bought here a year or so ago and wanted more
...

WE TALKED ABOUT THE SINGLE MALT AND LOOKED FOR IT AND DID NOT FIND IT AND ERIC
said he believed that it might not be produced anymore ...

WE TALKED and I showed him that I was writing up some different products for the
shelf and he looked at what I had collected and his first comment was that it
really represented quite a variety. hanks Eric, we want to show the depth of
what we sell here, that's our job, to bring this wealth of variety to your
attention.

ERIC PICKED UP each individual bottle and we discussed each bottle individually
before he went back to our shelves and picked up a bottle, reach up high
actually to retrieve a bottle of the Grappa Grape Chacha from TELIANI VALLEY in
Georgia, $16.99 a 375ml bottle, 42 percent alcohol by volume. I told him that we
had a bottle open if he wanted to taste it and he thought about it and finally
said : " Yes. " We tried it together and then he finally said : " I'm going to
buy this one . " By that Eric meant that he was going to buy the Grappa Riserva
Botti Di Rovere from SIBONA that I tasted just a couple of weeks ago with
Franceen Kahng our FABulous rep from Vias Imports. I could highly recommend it
to Eric as a result of having just tasted it : an old barrel aged grappa, aged
for 36 months, and WOW is it worth it for a special occasion, or simply when you
need or want to feel really special!

WELL, IF ERIC WAS GOING to spend for a 20 year old single malt scotch it is not
unreasonable that he would splurge for family and friends on a really fine
bottle of aged Italian grappa, 44 percent alcohol by volume at $70.99 a 750ml
bottle.

THEN CARLA was here asking me if we had any MONTENEGRO Amaro liqueur from Italy?
I said with a broad smile : " Yes, I have some. " And I went to show here where
it was and told her why this was just on the tip of my tongue, that I was
writing up today for our store email and I had thought to write up the
MONTENEGRO, $28.99 a 750ml bottle,  from Bologna, 23 percent alcohol by volume,
and then decided instead to write up the LUXARDO ' Abano ' Amaro , $25.99
liqueur, Girolamo Luxardo ...

NOW I HAVE DECIDED to write both up , the LUXARDO from Graham that loves it and
repeatedly buys it for it's extra punch and flavor and fire, and the MONTENEGRO
for Carla for it's subtlety, polish and finesse. We also spoke of Graham loving
RAMAZOTTI amaro originally, and of the AVERNA Amaro, On Special for $29.99 a
750ml bottle that is also smooth, polished and refined.

CARLA is a bartender, she bartended at DINO Enoteca recently and is now at the
Italian restaurant across the street from Le Diplomat ...

IT'S BEEN A STEADY STREAM of customers and suppliers this morning ...

WE HAD ROLF come with Nicola Gregoretti the Brand Manager of BACCHANAL Wine
Impors, Inc and I discovered both the BACARO Pinot Grigio Blush 2013, $13.99 a
bottle that I really liked from the Veneto, Italy, as well CAPOVERSO Syrah uscan
2012 dry red. also $13.99 : both quite smooth and elegant, balanced and fresh
and easy to drink and that we will sell in October, thanks Rolf, grazie Nicola
...

THEN ANDREW STOVER CAME IN WITH WINEMAKER MIGUEL MERINO OF Rioja, Spain
representing bottles of red and white Rioja made by himself and by his son. I
liked Miguel's wines better than the red Rioja made by his son that would cost
more on our shelves.

THANKS , GRAZIE CARLA, FUN TO TALK to you and catch up with you earlier this
morning ...

THEN WE HAD LAURA with her child in the stroller come asking me for a dry red,
under $10 to use for making some chili? I said that we had some wines that would
be suited for that and I showed her a bottle of the Syrah from CHANARMUYO Chamas
Honnorat from La Rioja, Argentina. Laura did not know the Syrah grape and so we
spoke of the Malbec grape and she told me that her husband would enjoy whatever
she did not cook with in the chili.

I HAD THE IDEA to introduce Laura to Miguel so that he could tell her about the
Syrah and the La Rioja Alta region in Spain. We were off, she liked that he was
Spanish and they spoke, we all tasted, she bought his bottle of the LORA
Syrah/Tempranillo dry Spanish red that she tasted, $10.99 a bottle ...

I LIKED MIGUEL'S wines that he described as : " the updated classic " ...

MIGUEL ALSO ASKED ME : " What vintage are you? " By that I guessed and said : "
You mean my age? " I was correct. I said : " 53. "

Laura also tasted the LORA Verdejo/ Sauvignon Blanc dry white, $10.99 ... it was
a grand event and time spent together.

THEN JOE CAME with co/owner Dave Pramuk of BIALE Vineyards in Napa Valley,
California, that likes to say that they at BIALE Vineyards make wines using the
Zinfandel grape that are Burgundian in style ... I agree, true, they do, loved
the elegance, fruit/forwardness, the brightness, the freshness, the pure
grapeness of the wines, including some delicious Petite Sirah... lovely. Dave
told me that originally in Napa a whole lot of Petite Sirah was grown, for many
years, way before the Cabernet Sauvignon. He also said that Zinfandel was there
way before the Cabernet Sauvignon ... love it, I did not know about the Petite
Sirah being grown in Napa ... wow, always something new and exciting to learn
...

SO I GOT BOTH Miguel and Dave to taste  together and enjoy each other's wines
that will all be here in the first week of October. It was a great serendipitous
moment like I enjoy, and everyone was welcome to join in and taste, share,
learn, grow and bloom and smile and feel joy broadly ... we did, too ..

THEN GREG CAME and we spoke beer and Roberto Donna and special birthday meals
fixed by Roberto / two of which I have helped on recently / ... and Greg highly
recommended the BIRDHOUSE Pale Ale from Pottstown, PA. It is brewed in honor of
Octerus Galbula ... I have to research this more. hanks for the recommendation
Greg, I value this as you know your beers really well ..., $10.99 a six/pack of
twelve ounce bottles, 5 percent alcohol by volume ...

A FEW ITEMS TO BRING to your attention :

1/ Windowpane Series Peaches ale brewed with Natural flavor and aged in
Chardonnay barrels; $17.99, smooth as can be, so delicate, so fine, so pleasing,
from MOTHER EARTH Brewing in Kinston, NC, a 2013, 8.2 percent alcohol by volume
...

2/ SEAGRAMS CROWN Limited Edition American Blended Whiskey, $15.99 a 750ml
bottle, ... 40 percent alcohol by volume, great deal ... must try some ...

3/ RUM CHAA Horchata Con Ron Caribbean Rum with real dairy cream, natural
and artificial flavors, On Special for $20.99 a 750ml bottle, 13.75 percent
alcohol by volume ... fun, tasty, a novel treat for now ... enjoy!

4/ Una Pera Pear Wine from FABBIOLI CELLARS, Loudoun County, VA., $16.99 a
bottle, : it's lovely and dry and bright and refreshing and it sold well here
Saturday when owner and winemaker Doug Fabbioli poured it for you all.

5/ Apple Wine from the NORTH GATE Vineyard in Loudoun County, $16.99 a
750ml bottle. his also tasted fresh and bright, a bit bolder and richer this
past Saturday when owner and winemaker Mark poured it for you all. Lovely to
have both here, really quite special!

6/ 2012 Chambourcin dry red from FABBIOLI CELLARS in Loudoun County, VA. is
another elegant and polished and pleasing and always been a favorite of mine
with each vintage getting better and better and BETTER EVERY VINTAGE! It has
more body and more weight and girth and definition than before, also softer and
rounder, more plump and with great posture on the tongue ...

/ 2012 Merlot from the NORTH GATE Vineyard in Loudoun County, VA. is fuller
and richer with more body and depth and definition than in the past and I
really, really like the mouth/feel of this 2012!

THIS IS CERTAINLY A DAY OF REFLECTION for us all as we remember the events of
the past and where we each were when September 11th, 2012 became fixed in our
thoughts forever. I remember getting over the Teddy Roosevelt Bridge just before
it was closed and wondering at first why so many well-dressed businessmen and
women were walking across the bridge? I also remember how I got to work and
Santos and I opened the store and we had our radio for our news and we had a
steady stream of customers in line purchasing whatever they wanted in shock like
all the rest of us. Santos and I never really moved from the register as the
line never stopped. It was pretty surreal and yet there was a real sense of
neighborhood as we all were there for one another during this national emergency
and tragedy.

IT TOOK US ALL BY SURPRISE and as I was driving into work I was planning in my
mind my wife's birthday as she was born on the 11th of September.

TODAY IS CERTAINLY A BEAUTIFUL cool , clear and brightly-blue-skied,
breezy-brrrr-morning. I walked our dog and we walked rather briskly as it was
chilly and I moved towards the spots of light. That was a driving force, find
the spots of sunshine to warm body, mind and soul and it worked pretty well.

I JUST LOOKED AT OUR CALENDAR and see that today is Patriot Day ( USA ). I also
see that Sunday was " Grandparent Day ". The 13th of September is also Chile's
Day Of Independence. I know that because I have been in touch with Manuel Rojas
, one of the owners of IN SITU, DOS PASOS and the ALMA wines of Chile. We have
done some great Big-Theme monthly wine-tastings and will do more with him again.
This year we will not be able to work it out in time but we can start planning
already for next year. Being proactive is good.

WE HAVE SOME RECOMMENDATIONS FOR YOU, from Santos Rivera ( beer and ciders ),
Ravinder Sharma ( liqueurs and liquors ), and from Michel Dumas and Tony Quinn (
wine ). We also deliver free of charge if you order more than $30. Just call us
at : 202-363-4265 and we will get you whatever you want delivered and in time,
for example to watch the second night of the series premier this week of the
show " The Voice ".

WE WATCHED PART of it last night my wife and I and I must say that I was caught
up by some of the individual stories and the voices, too. So much gets wrapped
up into these opportunities to sing one song for the 4 judges and see which may
turn their chairs around to possibly include them on their team? It is so hard
when you have their stories and the build-up for these singers and then you hear
their singing and none of the judges turn around. That's hard, really hard.

LAST NIGHT WHILE WATCHING " The Voice " I was drinking some of the Barbera Del
Monferrato 2011 TERRA D'ALERAMO  ( $8.99, 12.5% alcohol by volume ) from
Piemonte, Italy ( that was also just reviewed favorably by Dave McIntyre of the
Washington Post newspaper ). It really was smooth and elegant, bright and fresh
and it was the rest of my glass after our meal of thick pork chops, pasta and a
red pepper/tomato and carrot salad. I was enjoying these last few sips. My wife
enjoyed with our meal some of the really tasty D'ADIVAS 2010 Chardonnay (
$18.99, www.lidiocarraro.com - Jody Jackman poured the Merlot here last Friday
evening to great success and they are pouring the Merlot by the glass now at IL
PULPO a couple of store-fronts down from us ) from Serra Gaucha and made by
LIDIO CARRARO. It, too worked really well with our meal. Medium-to-light-bodied,
fresh, bright, crisp and well-focused with only 13% alcohol.

BUT WHAT REALLY IMPRESSED me and took me by surprise was how well this TERRA
D'ALERAMO tasted so good with a slice of the chocolate and raspberry cake that I
bought at Firehook Bakery on Saturday to celebrate my wife's birthday. It was a
great match and really did not loose anything as I ate a bite, sipped and
enjoyed. As a matter of fact it took a bit of the richness and sweetness of this
combination of a whole lot of chocolate, raspberry jam and raspberries
themselves! You might all want to try this Barbera : it's a winner both ways as
well as many more I am sure.

SANTOS HAS SOME GREAT BEER selections for you all this week. Of course the whole
category of Pumpkin beers has exploded this year and everyone has jumped on

with food, especially lighter fare, more casual, when you want to relax big but
do as little as possible. Great on picnics. Cheers.

2) Chardonnay 2010 from CHATEAU VARTELY ( $11.99, 14% alcohol by volume,
vin de calitate matur sec , from Moldova's Cimislia region , www.vartely.md )

refreshing, not heavy, nicely-balanced, soft oak flavors, some bright
sunshine-butter flavors. What a treat! WE sold a whole lot, great price for this
delicious Chardonnay. The Cabernet Sauvignon dry red is also excellent at $14.99 I believe?

3) Pinot Blanc " La Bise " 2011 from California's Dry Creek Valley , the
Benchmark Estate of MICHEL-SCHLUMBERGER ( $20.99, 12.9% alcohol by volume,

great success of the Barbera we are all sold-out of! Come try this Dolcetto and

demand! From Mclaren Vale, this is a steal of a wine! Come check it out again
for the very first time! Cheers.
3) Monastrell dry red 2008 " La Tremenda " by Enrique Mendoza, ( $14.99,
14.5% alcohol by volume, vinos alicante, Spain ) is " new and exciting " and we

Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Syrah, 17% Cabernet Franc was showing beautifully this
