Even #Miami is decking the halls and getting ready for the holidays! Have you put up your tree? Does it have a theme? I really like this one from the #brickellcitycenter here in downtown. It might be 80 degrees out, but it sure looks like #Christmas! . . . #happyholidays #tropicalchristmas #holidaydecor #hohoho #jinglebells #snowbirds #shoptilyoudrop #wrapitup
But wait! There’s more! As in more wonderfully affordable wine from @vinoscarinena. I’ve got three new recommendations that will fit neatly into your holiday plans.

Today I’m all about #Garnacha from @vinoscarinena in Spain. It makes a great, affordable holiday wine and pleases most palates. My new post has 6 recommendations you’ll want to track down!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Yes, it’s #CabFrancDay hosted by @dracaenawines (who happen to make a fantastic one!) I’ve just posted notes on some of my faves from around the world (link in bio). What will you be pouring to celebrate? . . . #winelover #winestagram #rightbankbordeaux #chinon #pasorobleswine #lacravantine #mendoza #washingtonwine #newjerseywine #morethanablendinggrape
Need a quick trip to the tropics? My latest post on a lazy lunch at the @ritzcarltonkeybiscayne is just what you need! Everything from the decor to the service (and of course, the food) was perfection. We felt like we’d been away for a week. If you live in #Miami make the 15 minute drive; if you’re looking for a resort vacation, look no further. Did I mention they have a Tequilier? Like a sommelier but for tequila!
