Having trouble pairing Thanksgiving yums?

Le Wine Buff Thanksgiving pairings - EnjoyBordeaux.com...then let Le Wine Buffs do it all for you! It's that time again, where everyone eats hours earlier than usual, groans, collapses around 7pm and then finishes up the late night with a whole new plate, yup...it's Thanksgiving! I've spent *months* coming up with painstakingly precise food and wine pairings for my portion of this article, literally until all of the skin was...ok, you're right, I didn't. In reality, I sat on the couch and drooled, thinking of all of the super tasty dishes that I had every year growing up, lovingly prepared by my supermom, Mama Donna.

Clos LaChance, the PGA & Original Wine

Frys.com Open - PGA TourYes, yes, yes...I *know*! It's been some time since my last post. Well, that's just what going on vacay for 2+ weeks to Carmel Valley, Spain and Portugal will do to you. Actually, I take that back. It's what going back to work AFTER that vacay, that will get ya! Anyhow, I'm back and ready to reengage my fellow vinopanions and boy do I have two cool pieces of vino news to disseminate!

Le Wine Buff in France, Bordeaux Day 2

Along the Quai - Bordeaux, France. The first day waking up in Bordeaux was a slight bit disorienting for this 'Buff. First off, I wasn't tired despite all of my travel overnight the day before and immediately launching into almost a full day and night of awesome Bordelaise activities. Indeed, I felt so fit that I decided to go for my first run of the trip, along the riverfront that we walked the day before. Fearless Mutineer, Alan Kropf (Twitter) took up the challenge to join me in my jogging quest. [The documentary short of the footage taken during our trip, "Meet Le Wine Buffs", has now launched! You can find it, as well as all of our 100 Days of Today's Bordeaux on the Bordeaux Wine Vimeo channel.]

The WKBadges.

Ward Kadel - @drXeNoI am extremely excited to announce the launch of a new and exciting way for me to communicate, in a very deliciously simple way, the best wines that I come across, each and every week. The brand, spankin' new WKBadges, spectacularly designed by Mofunsun Enterprises, LLC, are 5 simple notices that tell you a wine is worth the lightening of your wallet. The concept really is quite simple: do they sport a WKBadge? Then they deserve your money. BLEDOW!
