    <title>Celebrating Life</title>
    <link>http://www.keepwinesimple.com/Wine-blog.html#Celebrating-Life</link>
    <description>These are stressful times, and wine just isn't at the top of our list of things that we need in order to survive.  But perhaps it should be.

For many of us, wine is more than a beverage.  It is exploration and understanding.  It enriches our lives and lifts our spirits.

Wine becomes a celebration of life, rather than merely living.  And enjoyment, no matter how small and fleeting the moment, helps us make sense of events, and gives us energy to continue.

    <title>Wine For Troubled Times</title>
    <link>http://www.keepwinesimple.com/Wine-blog.html#Wine-For-Troubled-Times</link>
    <description>With all this economic twists and turns all I can say is I need a glass of wine.  The only question now is do I go with the flow of the drama, in which case I will have a dramatic Cabernet Sauvignon; or do I try to lighten my mood by having something light and breezy, perhaps a Riesling.  Oh my, the choices one has to make in these crazy times. 

Wines are like people; they have their own personality.  I always think of Cabernet has being dramatic, but never tragic!  It always ends well, when the grand performance that it puts on comes to a conclusion.  Rieslings personality, on the other hand, is relaxed and cheerful.  It knows how serious life is, but it doesnt take itself too seriously.  Riesling lets us discover its depth, without screaming at us.

What is your mood?</description>

    <title>Wine Recomendations for this week October 3/08</title>
    <link>http://www.keepwinesimple.com/Wine-blog.html</link>
    <description>This week I recommend a red wine from Argentina.  Bodegas del Desierto Syrah Alto Valle del Rio Colorado.  It is a moderately priced wine at around $15.00 USD.  Rated an 89/100, you can enjoy it now and through 2009.

In the white wine category, a wine from South Africa.  Neil Ellis  Sauvignon Blanc Groenekloof 2007, another moderately priced wine at around $18.00 USD.  At 89/100 points, you should enjoy it now.</description>

    <title>Wine Recomendations</title>
    <link>http://www.keepwinesimple.com/Wine-blog.html</link>
    <description>Here is this week's wine recommendation.

I very much enjoyed the La Cream 2006 Chardonnay Sonoma Coast with our grilled salmon.  It made our backyard feel like a special place.   All for the reasonable price of less than $18.00 a bottle.</description>
