  For May's Wine Paired Weekend event, Wendy Klik of A Day in the Life on the Farm has invited us to explore the wines and foods of the Middle East. You can read her invitation post here. This is a region rich in history, culture, flavor, and yes, wine. Join us tomorrow, May 8 at 6pm IST/ 11am EST / 10am CST / 8am PST by following along with the #WinePW hashtag on Twitter as we explore the wines and flavors of the Middle East.

  This month I'm hosting the Wine Paired Weekend group's exploration of underrated European wine regions. You can read my invitation here. There are so many unexplored wine regions in Europe-even within the big three countries of France, Italy, and Spain so I asked the group to go out and find a region new to them or that they think should be given a little more love.  Whether you've written a post for the theme or not, join the #WinePW conversation on Saturday, April 10 at 11 am EST / 8 am CST by following the hashtag on Twitter. And don't forget to check out what the rest of the

  For April's Wine Paired Weekend event, I've invited the #WinePW group to explore under the radar European wine regions. I challenged everyone to find a wine from a new to them European wine country or highlight an underrated region in one of the more well-known countries. Wines could come from countries like Russia, Slovenia, or Greece; or more obscure western European regions like Biferno, Italy or Ajaccio, France. I asked them to be adventurous and they were! Here's a little sneak peek to wet your palate for the discussion!

  For April's Wine Pairing Weekend event I'm inviting the #WinePW crew to explore Under the Radar European Wine Regions with me. 'Under the radar' doesn't have to mean 'unknown'! It's all about exploring regions that are new to us; that we think could use a little more love from others; a place on your wine travel bucket list; or a place you didn't know makes wine! Details for participation This #WinePW April 2021 event is Saturday, April 10, 2021. Are you ready to explore the great European unknown and participate?

  We celebrated #CabFrancDay on December 4. To keep the Cab Franc love going the December #WinePW theme explores Cabernet Franc Around the World!

  This month the #WinePW group is taking advantage of October being #MerlotMe month. See the original invitation from Jeff at Food Wine Click! here. I have been unaccountably excited about this theme. For years I maintained a strong 'no Merlot' policy but have really come to appreciate this grape. And understand my previous prejudice for what it was: experience with bad wine. This theme also makes it easy for me to participate in the discussion with my usual raison d'être: Turkish wine. We have a lot of Merlot in Turkey due to the general popularity of the Bordeaux varieties. Like every other wine producing country, we have really good Merlot,

  For this month's #WinePW, host Gwendolyn from Wine Predator has invited us all to Re/Consider Harvest: How will global warming change what we eat, drink, grow? You can view the original invitation here. Whether or not you wrote about it, if you're interested, join the conversation on Twitter on Saturday, September 12 at 8am Pacific/11am Eastern/10am Central/6pm Istanbul by following the #WinePW hashtag. While climate change is as much an issue in Turkey as anywhere else, my three jobs got a little out of control this last month and I wasn't able to badger harvest/climate change information out of any of my wineries. However, as an old hand at

  It has been so long since I've been to Moldova that I don't even remember what year it was. 2009? Maybe 2010? For a brief couple years I was in Moldova, mostly Chisinau, not infrequently visiting for work. Any free time I had was spent with my local colleagues touring churches and the like. While this was long before I became involved in wine, I was even then conscious of the wine industry there.  Unfortunately, the relatively quick in and out trips and only a passing interest in wine meant that I missed huge opportunities to experience more and learn more about Moldovan wine.
