This ties in to the way that I enjoy wine, by emphasizing the context of how, where, when (and with what and with whom) we drink wines, as well as linking to the trend of seasonal cooking that is so prevalent today among professional chefs and home cooks.

Preferably at a a winery in the Finger Lakes region sitting on the deck overlooking the vineyards and the lake. Some cheese and bread make it all the more enjoyable and for my taste a bold red would be nice, but a dry white will also do. Oh yeah, got to have my swife enjoying the wine and atmopshere with me.

It's the way the fading light of the shortening days brings out the color of the red in the glass. For me, there's nothing like drinking wine in the fall.
