I Like Red (and white) Wine is a group for GAY wine and food lovers. The idea is to provide an alternative outlet for GAY MEN to meet to pursue this interest and to also provide other social opportunities. Learning about legs and noses is great but getting together because you simply enjoy wine/food and to meet people is better. This isn't so much about learning but getting together because of a common theme. The idea is to create a community with a real life outlet. Hopefully, we will be able t …

I have traveled to Italy at least once and sometimes twice a year for the last 12 years. I always start in Rome since for the most part it's the most direct route from America.

All of my trips have been for at least 10 days and many for 2 weeks or more. After coming into Rome and spending at least a day or two there I go on to either Florence or Sorrento. I rent an …

Northside Wine Collection Club is an established form of alternative investment that can offer impressive returns. The wine market is based upon simple supply and demand economics. Bordeaux has the most stable financial market of all wine producing regions, while in each decade only 3-4 vintages out of every 10 have wines of a high enough quality for investment purposes. A chateau can only produce a unique and finite amount of wine each year. As this is happening the wine is maturing and becomin …
