Side Dish - Texas Wine Month Report 

I hope this year's annual celebration of our state's wonderful wines has inspired you to taste something new, plan a weekend adventure or otherwise explore what the world of Lone Star wine has to offer.  I've enjoyed reading everyone's comments on Side Dish so far as well - thank you all so much, and feel free to comment on this final post, too.

And remember, you can always check back here on DallasEats for regular Texas wine recommendations.  Cheers!

Big Sale at Times Ten Cellars!

Just a quick note to give all our wine-loving readers a heads-up on some great wine at a great price:  

Times Ten Cellars in Lakewood is having a big sale right now on take-home bottles of their wonderful wines in honor of the upcoming election.  The winery is offering 20% off on all bottles to-go and an extra 10% off when you buy 6 or more.  Awesome!  They even pack 'em up in an adorable earth-friendly wine tote for easy transport.  Love it :)

As Texas Wine Month comes to a close, this is a perfect way to stock up on top-notch wines made right here in Dallas for the upcoming holiday entertaining season!

Drink Local Wine ... while you surf Drink Local Wine!

Pour yourself a glass of Lightcatcher Cab or Brennan Viognier - we've got a site you'll want to explore while sipping your favorite local vino:  

Drink Local Wine is Jeff Siegel (The Wine Curmudgeon) and Dave McIntyre's guide to the world of non-Cali wines.  Check it out to find thoughtful commentary and info on 16 states and Canada in honor of "Regional Wine Week", which is drawing to a close as we speak.  

Though designed with just this one week in mind, something tells me Drink Local Wine has staying power.   DallasEats loves the site and Siegel's mission statement: "Regional wine deserves respect!"  Right on.
