We meet, we read, we think, we choose, we act. If you are interested in bridging the gap betwee …

Pleasure can come by many faces! It's whatever pleases you...makes you smile, both inwardly and outwardly. It's what can warm you on a cold day just reminiscing of something you fondly remember. Or catching a glimpse of something that takes you to another place. It can be something excitingly new and different or distant memories of things past. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If you could go anywhere in the world, WHERE would you go??? The Great Pyramids of Egypt, The Eiffel Tower in Paris, The Night Li …

About Wine Tasting Wine tasting is the sensory examination and evaluation of wine. Wines are made up of chemical compounds which are similar or identical to those in fruits, vegetables, and spices. The sweetness of wine is determined by the amount of residual sugar in the wine after fermentation, relative to the acidity present in the wine. Dry wine, for example, has only a small amount of residual sugar. Individual flavors may also be detected, due to the complex mix of organic molecules such a …
