WineRelease.com's September 15, 2024 Monthly Newsletter.

Busy month for updates and wine releases but quiet on my wine adventures.

Over the past year, whenever I'm at a restaurant and open the wine list, I find myself, like others, focusing on the varietal, producer, appellation, vineyard, and price — in that order. I've come to realize that while I often pick wines I know are good, more often than not, I choose wines that evoke memories. These are usually memories of tasting with the winemaker or sharing a bottle with friends and loved ones. I savor the wine, wondering if it tastes the way I remember. But soon enough, the taste brings back the reason I chose it in the first place.

And now, onto the wine releases...
