La Quinta Cliff House restaurant- stunning location, built into the mountainside. Appetizers of scallops and octopus. Dinner was lobster tail and cioppino. Gorgeous setting .
This is my 3rd flight today, powered by StarLink. It’s fantastic! Thank you @elonmusk and @SouthwestAir
Chocolate! Dark chocolate! This arrived and I had to taste it and it’s wonderfully rich, creamy.
Will pair perfectly with wine! 🍷
2018 Beringer Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon- Marston Vineyard - fragrant nose, deep garnet color, dark fruits, nicely balanced tannins and long finish.
74 degrees today so we’re grilling beef tenderloin and lobster tails outside. Cheers 🍷
We’re traveling to La Quinta and Palm Springs CA for a week. If you have any great restaurant or bar recommendations, let us know! 🍷🥂⛳️
Happy Halloween! The Kids’ pumpkins came out great. Kids with grandkids - so much fun - and the weather was nice! 🎃👻
2021 La Magia Brunello di Montalcino - amazing wine, dark ruby red, lovely balance, aged in French oak; this is a beautiful wine. Serving with spicy sausage and tortellini. One of my favorite stops on the #RusticTuscanyTour Salute 🍷

For those Zinfandel lovers, like myself- 2023 Turley Paso Robles Pesenti Vineyard- perfect with bbq ribs tonight, hot honey beans and red skin potatoes salad. Cheers🍷
1989 Chateaux Montrose- this left bank wine is 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc - beautiful! Did I die and go to heaven? It’s extraordinary Cheers🍷
This bottle of 2025 Poggio Stenti Vermentino was so refreshing after golf today!
It was sunny, beautifully crisp at 55 degrees and the leaves are still red, orange, yellow. Enjoy the fall! Salute🍷
Tonight’s selection is a 2018 Casanova di Neri
100% Sangiovese single vineyard from Montalcino. Luscious dark fruits, floral notes, beautifully balanced tannins and acidity. Gorgeous wine, I’ll be serving veal cutlets
Salute 🍷
Tonight’s selection is the 2022 50th Anniversary Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon. Sadly, we’re underwhelmed by it- kinda flat for what you would expect as a big Napa Cab.
Nonetheless we’re having it with a classic pot roast. Cheers 🍷
