Right up front we’ll say that at any wine event we’ll taste probably two to three reds for every white we try.

Here’s our Top Ten list for red wine from the recent 2014 Mohegan Sun Winefest. I’ll be honest up front and say I wimped out, couldn’t make the hard decision and left in a tie for tenth, so it is really a top eleven. These were evaluated on overall quality, price (and therefore value) and Continue reading Top Ten Red Wines from the 2014 Mohegan Sun Winefest https://www.redwineplease.com/summary-of-the-2014-mohegan-sun-winefest/
We just wrapped up the 2014 Mohegan Sun Winefest, which is the 11th year for this event, and we have to admit we were pleasantly surprised. We started at the Elite Cru on Saturday afternoon, and then came back for the Grand Tasting on Sunday. There were ups and downs, but way more ups.

January can be a major bummer, as the glow of the holidays fades, the snow piles up and the dreary New England winter marches on. There are ways to get away from that, and one of our favorites is to beat the winter back with some good wine. Throw in a few world class restaurants Continue reading Preview of the Mohegan Sun Winefest – January 24-26, 2014 https://www.redwineplease.com/recap-of-the-2013-greenwich-wine-and-food-festival/
