Marriage Story

This movie was highly touted as a must see based on the sad and brutal effects of divorce. Very good performances and makes people have to really think about regardless of how you feel. Your partner may be feeling something else.

The Gentleman

So, being Guy Ritchie fans, we were dying to see what he was going to do with this new movie with an all star cast of characters, British and American. We see that he has matured with his technique as well as getting a lot more money for his movies than before.

2014 Gran Logrado Rioja

Grapes:  80% Tempranillo, 15% Garnacha Tinto, 5% Viura

Vinification:  The grapes varieties were fermented together and the pulp was left to macerate with the skins, but without the stalks, for about 20 days at a temperature of between 25 and 30 degrees.  It was kept in special tanks for 12 months during which time it was decanted on three occasions to remove the lees.  In autumn of the following year it was put into 225 litre oak casks, where it remained for twelve months and was decanted twice each year.  After this it was bottled and left to settle for 6 months before being released onto the market.

Appearance: The wine has a slightly purple, ruby colour with golden gleams from its long period in cask.  Much of the colour comes from the Garnacha grape.

Aroma:  The aroma has characteristics from its oak ageing - vanilla, black pepper and hints of tobacco.

Taste:  Warm fruit flavours with nuances of vanilla and tobacco.  It is smooth and medium bodied with a good length.

In a race against time, they must cross over into enemy territory to deliver a message that could potentially save 1,600 of their fellow comrades -- including Blake's own brother.  This is what we saw as we sat down to check out this epic War movie by Sam Mendes

On the palate, blackcurrant, raspberry jam, and cedar layer over a lush, full body and a slightly peppery finish.  Some oak treatment was used during fermentation, and the finished wine was matured for an additional four months in a combination of American and French oak.
