Wine And Food Intelligence... For The Budget Enthusiast!


Served Up By Food And Wine Writer Tod Dimmick



Welcome to Tasting Times, the practical food and wine resource for intelligent wine fans.  In these pages we explore the world of wine and food with humor.  Past topics have ranged from “Say What?” (an appreciation of unusual varietals), to the “Zen of Zin”, to commentary and review of new organic wines. I’m passionate about wine as a part of a meal with family and friends, so my posts and newsletters always include a recipe to go along with that glass.
Subscribers tell me they want practical "how to buy" information. With the guidance here, you’ll know what to serve at your next party, or at the family dinner.  This knowledge is more than my recommendations.  Just because I love a wine doesn’t necessarily mean you will!  So along with reviews, you’ll find a wine’s back story; context to enable you to find a wine you love, and then go to the next step of using that experience to find other terrific wines.
Give us a try, and people will ask, "How do you always know just the right wine to buy?!"  

We enable smart wine lovers to become their own Everyday Sommelier!
