Wineries keep an eye on the Whitehouse
Wednesday, December 17, 2008 this AP article on pressdemocrat.com featured a great quote for Texas wines:
Lettie Teague, executive wine editor for the magazine Food & Wine, said K-J chardonnay seems a good choice for modern times — popular and reasonably priced at around $11 a bottle.
She envisions a bipartisan presidential table graced with blue state reds and red state whites.
“As a New Yorker, I’d like to see some New York wines represented — we were a huge state for him,” she said with a laugh, suggesting a sauvignon blanc or cabernet from the North Fork region or a Finger Lakes Riesling. Other picks: a Washington state merlot, “because I feel they really do that grape well,” a hearty California zinfandel and “to show that he is an all-inclusive sort, I would throw in a viognier from Texas.”
Sing along
Richard Paul Thomas will be playing at Salado Wine Seller on December 6, 4-7 pm and on December 20, 4-7 pm. He recieved a standing ovation when he played in November, so come hear his music and enjoy a glass of Texas wine.
drink it warm!
This month we will be serving warm Kriskindel wine. Like gluwein (glow wine) from Germany, this is a wine that is meant to be served warm. We suggest serving it in a crock-pot set on low at your next holiday open house. Or if you are enjoying it by yourself, pour some into your favorite holiday mug, microwave it for one minute, then sip carefully.
This wine is already spiced, or mulled, so it will fill your house full of clove and cinnamin smells. Remember not to boil this wine, or it will evaporate quickly!
Enjoy this Texas wine holiday treat at Salado Wine Seller, or take home a bottle with you to share with family and friends. Made by Oberhof Wine Cellars, Fredericksburg, Texas.
*we’ll stay later if there’s a crowd!
need a new sign soon…
Come check out the new digs!
Almost done!
Moving is never fun, but plenty of friends showed up and helped out. Big thanks to our friends Lonnie Edwards, Rita and Mike Oden, J. Smith, Jorge, and Emily for getting the big move done. Thanks to Terry Crain’s Custom Repairs for all his help getting us compliant with building codes. Thanks to Jeff Kelly at Salado Plumbing and his crew for hooking up our sink and dishwasher in the new place.
There are beautiful bushes and trees surrounding the new building for Salado Wine Seller, but they were a bit overgrown. Thanks to Don and Lou and their hardwork in the flower beds, you can now see the building. And, as a added bonus, they mulched the beds to keep the weeds under control. Thank-you Don & Lou!
As I was arranging the shop, I realized I needed more shelves. I quickly ran over to Fletcher’s Books and Antiques where Tyler Fletcher found exactly what I was looking for. Here it is:
So if you find yourself in need of just the right piece of furniture, go see Tyler over at Fletcher’s Books and Antiques. If Tyler doesn’t have what you’re looking for, he’ll surely talk you into something else. And if you’re still not sure, then consult Eddy Puss, the cat. Then come by for a glass of Texas wine and compare your treasure with mine. (Or purchase a couple of the great gifts we’ve got displayed on those shelves).
Now that the floors are done, we’ve been busy painting. I think you’ll enjoy the results. Big thanks to Stacie, Alisa, Emily and Michelle! Without their help, we would have never finished!
Come see the color I chose at 841 N. Main St., Salado, TX 76571
