ADVERTISING: Advertorial — Picking your tasting
Every wine consumer we have met over the many years we have had the shop has their own personal taste in wine. Your preferences are the most important thing to us as wine professionals. Sure, we like to introduce you to new things, that is the fun of the wine world. It is not productive for any of us though to be recommending Merlot to someone who really doesn’t like the varietal, similarly if you prefer to drink bottles averaging under $40, we ought not to bother discussing the ones that are $400. It is our job to take your likes and dislikes into account with every recommendation and we take it seriously.

TP: Note to you hoarders
Dear Kootenai County residents and fellow Americans, I implore you to take seriously the rapidly transpiring virus and be aware of you neighbors around you and not be selfish. An example of being selfish during these times is by buying a pallet worth of toilet paper. It’s a crappy situation already, even more though for those who just need to buy a few items for the week, like your server neighbor, the grandmother down the road or the single mom that’s working and can’t be in Costco buying everything but a kitchen sink.

Spring release
While new wines are constantly available on the market wineries typically release their new vintages in groups in the spring, and again in the fall. As the spring of 2013 approaches these new release wines are being eagerly anticipated as many reds from the troubled 2010 vintage will start to hit the market. While the big names like Harlan Estate, and their second label Bond, as well as Pride Mountain Vineyard and Quilceda Creek garner much of the attention there is a host of other wines that are more meaningful to wine consumers as the mega names are simply not attainable or affordable for most of us.
BUREAUCRACY: License to laugh
Last Friday, July 22, I spent three hours at the licensing place in Coeur d’Alene. I finally walked away three hours later without renewing my license. They open at 7:30. I got there shortly after 8. I was number 75. They were servicing number 27. I sat outside for two hours until the sign read 65. I then found a place to sit inside waiting for my number to come up. The numbers trickled down to 74. Finally, I thought. A lady behind the counter hollered out, “Our computers just went down.” The number 74 was frozen in time.
