Corkscrew: For a Few Dollars Morenew
Would you pay $10 more for a bottle of wine that benefits a family-owned business? Or a winery that farms its land mindful of future generations? Or would you rather save that 10 bucks and buy from a company baby-sitting its bottom line? I uncovered all these scenarios during a recent trip to Sonoma Valley.

Corkscrew: Sauvignon Blanc is Ready for its Close-Upnew
Sauvignon blanc has lost its sex appeal. Like an aging actress, the newness has worn off, exposing her raw talent and potential. I adore wines at this stage; it's when winemakers begin to experiment and let the grapes perform vinous magic.
