This video is from a guy named Gary Vaynerchuk. He produces an online video show called Wine Library TV. He produces wine videos five times every week. Some of his videos are quite long, but the one below is only about 10 minutes and talks about the process he uses to taste wine. Enjoy.

Diplomat Holiday Hours and New Year Plans

noreply@blogger.com (Dimitri Makris) — Thu, 20 Dec 2007 08:31:00 -0800

Merry Christmas everyone! Just wanted to let you know about the hours we'll be keeping over the holidays.

Christmas Eve we will be open for lunch as well as our normal evening hours.

We will be closed Christmas Day and Boxing Day. Regular hours will be in effect starting December 27.

New Years Eve is always a great night at The Diplomat. We are accepting reservations throughout the evening and are filling up fast. For those of you looking to make plans, we do have a couple suggestions. If you are planning to go out later in the evening, perhaps you might be interested in kicking your night off with a great meal at The Diplomat before heading out to your final destination. If you're looking for a place to ring in the New Year, make a reservation with us for around 9 pm and stay the night! We'd be glad to have you as our first guests of 2008.

It seems as though everything is going interactive these days, so at The Diplomat Steakhouse, we decided to jump on board too.

We just recently updated our website (pictured) to allow our online visitors to experience a smilar experience to the one our guests experience inside the restaurant. This blog is an extension of our website, allowing us to keep everyone up to date with happenings in and around the restaurant.

We'll also dedicate a good majority of the posts to the wine that we bring into The Diplomat. We love wine, and we just hope that we can bring a little bit of that joy into your life. Afterall, what fun would the restaurant business be if it wasn't for the wine?
