Be Warned!

If you read this blog it's your fault – not mine. I'm not a wine expert. Just a person who likes to drink wine. Especially wine from California and preferably with friends who share my passion.

The idea for this blog arose during my wife's and my last California trip. With friends we visited the wonderful tasting room of Tricycle Wine Co. at Arnold Drive inside Cornestone Gardens in Sonoma. We had nice discussions about wine, the wine business and wine from California and Germany. During these discussions paired with the wonderful wines from the Molnar Family, Kazmer & Blaise and Obsidian Ridge – Carole: many thanks for your outstanding hospitality – this blog was born.

I write this blog in English – even if my English is improvable. Why in English? Because it is mainly for my friends in the US. I learned during my US trips mainly two wine related things:

- Even in the US lots of people don't know about the fantastic wines produced in this country at wonderful wineries by remarkable people

- The knowledge about German wine can be improved

So I will concentrate mainly on the following topics:
- Wineries in the US and in Germany
- Wine Tastings – especially of Californian and German wines
- Wine and Food – my special view

So enjoy it and again "Be warned!"
