This year’s Wine Blog Awards were given out at the Conference. The event was hosted by Alan Kropf of the Wine Mutineer Magazine, who gave the presentation that we won’t soon forget! Thanks to Laura and Lisa from Jordan Winery for video taping the experience. I was certainly not expecting the type of presentation (though I have added some of my photos of the event for additional color.

And clearly, you can see the ceremony needed more color!

Congratulations to the winners!

I saw a demonstration last night on how to sabre a bottle of Champagne. I want to do this from now on, although realistically, I realize that my personal sommelier, Sophie will undoubtably take over this task, as she loves to open wine for me.

So, Sophie? This is for you, my love. Study up.

and remember as Napoleon said, “In victory, you deserve Champagne, in defeat, you need it”
