Not a big deal, except when you drive around early morning and late night hours like I do.

		<description><![CDATA[I read a wonderful article this morning in today’s Santa Barbara News Press entitled Tercero Wines – An Anatomy of a Drive-By Sip and Spit. The article was written by Dennis Schaefer, who has followed Santa Barbara County wines and wineries for quite some time. The article addressed our recent scores from Robert Parker in<a href="http://tercerowines.com/2010/10/a-drive-by-sip-and-spit/"> Read more...</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It seems that with most things in life, bigger is considered better . . . In the wine industry, though, conventional wisdom is that ‘smaller is better’ . . . smaller yields, smaller tanks, smaller presses, smaller case volumes, etc. ‘Smaller’ wineries produce better wine then ‘bigger’ wineries, right?

		<description><![CDATA[Brix is a measure of sugar levels in grapes in the wine industry. It roughly translates as follows: a grape sample showing a reading of 20 brix means that that sample has approximately 200 grams of sugar per liter of solution . . .or almost 2 lbs. of sugar per gallon! Yikes! It also means<a href="http://tercerowines.com/2009/09/when-30-brix-may-still-not-be-high-enough/"> Read more...</a>]]></description>

Tim Hanni is a real heretic in the wine industry &#8211; pure and simple.

		<description><![CDATA[There has not been a lot of ‘scientific research’ about matching certain wines with certain foods. Most of the ’common knowledge’ about the subject has been disseminated by wineries themselves, with specific suggestions of which food to pair with their specific wines. In addition, there are the ’conventional wisdoms’ that tell us that one should<a href="http://tercerowines.com/2009/09/conventional-wisdoms-red-wine-with-fish/"> Read more...</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I ‘love’ these two words &#8211; Conventional Wisdom &#8211; especially when used together to talk about the wine industry! There are MANY conventional wisdoms that folks hold as ‘truths’ or ‘near truths’ just because . . . For instance: Conventional Wisdom would say that an unfiltered wine is better than a filtered wine.
