Making Detroit-metro a better place
one fine bottle at a time
This was created by metro Detroiters who love moments with friends & family, sharing tales of travel, food, connection and novel experiences. All that is often made even better over wine & cheese- or dinner- especially when some of the wine or dinner fixins' are homemade!
Having contributed at a couple of global wine-review sites, and getting generous feedback regarding the "novellas" we were leaving as tasting notes, we wanted to create this as more of a homegrown page, a place for us Metro Detroiters to "gather" and discuss- electronically- (but also breaking actual bread when desired) wines available and the places from which we purchase them locally...
Vino has been a part of our personal journey for years, from what we made and gifted to our wedding guests, to how our tastes have changed, to eventually building a unique cellaring space.
We'd love to hear from other metro beverage fans... We want wine lovers to Drink Better Wine in Better Places!
We see this page evolving a great deal over the coming years, if any of you find it useful enough to visit and read the reviews shared.
Noroc & Salud to you all!

These are some recent things we concluded based on our uber-palette. If you like the cut of our jib, we invite you to click furiously , with wreckless abandon. Life is too short for anything else. (Click the image for wine details, click the wine name for full review)
Well, heck, even though it's only a 2015 and we have so many more splendid, aged options in our cellar, we kept thinking about...
Fruit forward but not in any bomb way, just the good stuff... Just the right balance to make us say, "Hey, we've been missing this clean fruit in tastings recently!" YUM! Not too peppery; an elegant, finely...
We drank about 40% of the bottle and the rest met its fate in the disposal.
We...
