Finding Romance in Wine Country
Whether you are in the throes of a new relationship or adding a bit of magic to one, finding romance in wine country is definitely one way to turn the trick.
Finding Romance in Wine Country
If you're looking for a great way to spend some time with the one you love, how about planning a romantic getaway weekend? Taking some time to get away with your spouse or lover can definitely strengthen your relationship, as well as allow you to have some much needed rest and relaxation. There are many different places throughout the United States that make great destinations for romance, but heading off to wine country can be one of the most beautiful trips you'll ever take.
The wine country of Napa Valley, California, is a gorgeous part of the West Coast that makes an excellent spot for getting away from it all. The area is full of different wineries and small towns that make for great wine tours and excursions like antiquing and outdoor activities. The scenery and views of vineyards and coastal beauty are a perfect backdrop for romantic dinners, wine tastings, candlelight massages and more. Spa treatments, such as hot tub soaks, facials and other relaxing techniques mingle perfectly with the setting of the vineyards and green hills.
One of the best spots is the Wine Country Inn, located in the town of St. Helena, California. Nestled in the middle of the Napa Valley vineyard area, this inn offers wine lovers (as well as romantic lovers) a place to spend a weekend in bliss. The impeccably appointed rooms, suites and common areas help to draw you into the romantic feeling of the Napa Valley. The special packages available also offer some opportunities for romance.
The Wine Country Inn's special occasion package has some details that can make your trip even more memorable. Arrival gifts such as a trail of rose petals to your bed (turned down, either when you arrive or after dinner), and an after dinner brownie for two along with a nightcap of port make excellent touches to your special night. Gourmet breakfasts in your room (because who doesn't love breakfast in bed?) along with other gifts make the special occasion packages perfect for a honeymoon, anniversary or other romantic occasion.
Whether you want to have just a weekend away or weeks, a trip to wine country can make your love blossom!

Wynns Black Label Cabernet Sauvignon 2006

Wynns Black Label Cabernet Sauvignon 2006 Tuesday, Jun 17 2008 Tasting Notes and Australia and Coonawarra and Variety and Red and cabernet et al Lincoln Having missed out on the 2001 Penfolds Bin 28 Shiraz I bought a bottle of this instead, and after consulting the decant-o-meter, plopped it in said vessel for 4 hours. Each swirl showed increasing promise, and with the commencement of the Carlton-Collingwood game (this was consumed on Sunday), it was time to have a taste. A youthful pur
From Australia to Portugal

I have two wines to tell you about that I enjoyed over the weekend. The first is Boarding Pass 2005 Shiraz from R. Wines in South Australia. The packaging is a little gimmicky, but I found the wine very...
Do Play With Your Food: uWink Hollywood Debuts
Wed, 18 Jun 2008 09:01:04 PDT
The new 7,300-square-foot Hollywood & Highland location of uWink (its first location is in Woodland Hills) opened to the general public last night. But Monday my friend dotsara and I were able to get a sneak peek of the high-tech interactive restaurant at the media party on Monday. We had free reign over the food menu and extensive cocktail list and could order directly through a touchscreen at our tables instead of going through a waiter. I could see how this would be dangerous for the walle
St Hallett Blackwell Shiraz 2006
Wed, 18 Jun 2008 14:53:03 PDT
St Hallett Blackwell Shiraz 2006 Thursday, Jun 19 2008 Tasting Notes and Australia and Barossa Valley and Variety and Red and shiraz et al Lincoln This wine already has a few big accolades. And in this regard it makes it even harder to review in an even-handed manner. Not that this is your problem; moreso one for my analyst. A deep blood red with some purple bruising. And oh, and it smells very nice; plums and spice, brambly fruits, with some cream and nutty oak. The palate is juicy, pl

Tyrrells Vat 8 Shiraz 2007 Thursday, Jun 19 2008 Tasting Notes and Hunter Valley and Australia and Variety and Red and shiraz et al Gary Walsh The 2007 Private Bin Reds order form landed in the mail today, which not only reminded me to write this up, but also sent a little twinge of guilt through me for not doing so sooner (and I’m feeling a little pinch for not getting round to writing up some other Shiraz too..namely the 2006 Shaw+Smith and De Bortoli Reserve etc..) So here it is, the Sh
Vlado's Charcoal Grill Steakhouse Restaurant
Fri, 20 Jun 2008 04:47:37 PDT
Vlado's is nearly an institution in Melbourne when you want to eat steak. I had been wanting to go to Vlado's for a while, especially after reading very favourable reviews such as that from Sarah. She even managed to score some free raw steaks after the meal. What the? I've never heard of anyone getting raw ingredients from a restaurant to take home, but I wouldn't say no. So when Vlado's was thrown around as an option for a work dinner, I quickly threw in my agreement. Ron and I arrived precis
