Just Add Wine

Will somebody please buy this for me??

2012-06-14T17:06:00.001-05:00

If you appreciate art and wine, this is the ultimate rack! Not sure I want this... NEED is more accurate!!! I'm begging someone to buy this for me... it's only $7,000! Go ahead, sing it - "Wine rack in disguise..."

Did you know??

Costco is the largest wine retailer in the United States.

Annual wine sales are about $700 million!

I feel like Columbus!

2012-05-06T20:39:00.000-05:00

Best find in a long time... 2010 {Noble Vines} 446 Chardonnay!

This has been around for a while, but I felt like Columbus stumbling upon a new discovery! I had the pleasure of trying the 667 Pinot Noir a week ago and decided to explore further. For only $12/bottle you can't go wrong... beautiful French style. Citrus, tropical and pineapple notes! Paired well with Dan's AMAZING cornish game hens, marinated in brandy and oranges, and sprinkled with Herbs de Provence.

Amazing meal, amazing wine, amazing man!

GREED?!

2012-05-05T12:54:00.000-05:00

GREED by Kacper Hamilton (2008)
1 of the 7 deadly glasses

“Each glass encapsulates a sin, which is revealed through the ritual of drinking,” explains Hamilton.

“The 7 Deadly Glasses are about celebrating passion and encouraging the user to be sinful in a theatrical fashion. The display case is a sarcophagus for the wine glasses, made using mahogany wood, brass fittings and a velvet fabric lining.”

Handmade in England. Limited Edition.

I stumbled across this today and think the title is just as cool as the actual wine rack! Unfortunately, the link was broken and I cannot track down the details on how to purchase this piece. I had to showcase it though because I thought it was so unique!

The artist's site is definitely worth checking it...
