Cheers and welcome

Rather that intersperse wine posts within my politically oriented blog (www.hogtown.blogspot.com), I'm creating a new blog. This new space in the information ether will be host to:

- tasting notes on wine,
- notes from trips to various wine growing regions, and
- suggsestions and recommendations on touring the wine country here in our backyard - The Niagara Peninsula,

This evening, I begin (in the next post) with a discussion on the merits of hauling off to wineries and tasting.
