As always, Alder of Vinography continues to set the standard for wine bloggers. This time it is regarding wine blogger ethics . It’s both inspiring, transparent and as thorough as you can get… I’ll be drafting a similar code of ethics to be posted here shortly.

For the March 2006 edition of Wine Blogging Wednesday, the 19th in the series and my 2nd, Jathan at Winexpression.com has suggested the topic of Rhone-style wines. This topic gets back to the pure tasting roots of WBW, after last month’s diversion to wine shops that feel the love. Time to do some research… The Rhone...

Although I missed the boat on this one completely, the results are in for the latest Wine Blogging Wednesday over at CorkDork . This month’s objective was to try new red wines from New Zealand. 31 bloggers participated this time! Check it out...

The Loire is one of the most beautiful areas of France, with stunning chateaux, rivers, and more. The wines are pretty good, too. The Loire produces two main white wines: Sancerre and Vouvray. Sancerre is made from the Sauvignon Blanc...

Lest you forget, tomorrow is Wine Blogging Wednesday #25 , hosted by none other than Sam of Becks &  Posh .

This didn’t mean you were supposed to locate your local wino on the street corner by ABC, but instead identify a wine described by each of the participants. While this would be extremely difficult, at least for those of us still in the early process of learning about wines from around the world, the one big rule for this WBW...

Leave it to Beau to come up with a great, and innovative, theme for the next edition of everybody's favorite wine blogging event. Rather than ask us to drink a bottle made with _____ grapes from ______ region that costs _____ dollars, he's turned this WBW thing on its head. Instead, he's given us a list of regions to choose from and he's made a game out of it -- Where's Waldo style. When you...

Where's wino? No no, Beau over at Basic Juice isn't asking us to find him next Wednesday for WBW #26, that's just the name of this month's theme. He's shaken things up a little this time 'round. Instead of thrusting an explicity variety/locale upon us, he's offering some options. And, ...

... on the palate. So, it is with much pleasure that I announce Wine Blogging Wednesday #27 , hosted...
