New Year, New Adventures & a New Website!

An official Happy New Year to everyone and I hope your 2013 is off to a fabulous start! I've been hard at work on my new website which I am very happy to introduce to you right now. I hope you find it useful in enhancing your adventures in food and wine in 2013 and beyond.In keeping with the spirit of the New Year, January is all about starting fresh and setting goals for the year ahead. If one of your goals for 2013 is to explore the world of food and wine, you're in luck - The Glamorous Gourmet and The Wine Atelier have you covered! A couple features of the new website include:1.) Weekly Wine Picks: as the name implies each week I'll be featuring a selection of wines based on a common theme. Whether it's a specific region, season or featured producer the focus will first and foremost be on learning about what's in your glass, where it's from, who made it and how it got there!2.) The Wine Atelier Wine Club: Explore the world of wine from the comfort of your own home with The Wine Atelier Wine Club! Every month, two personally hand-selected bottles will show up on your doorstep with detailed information on the wine region, producer, grape variety and suggested food and wine pairings. All you need is your corkscrew, glass and a sense of adventure!3.) Weekly Wine Facts: Do vinous terms like "Sommelier," "Vendages Tardive," and  "Pouilly-Fuissé" get you tongue tied? Well, not for long, my fellow wine lovers! Each week I'll feature a new wine term complete with proper pronunciation and definition to further demystify the world of wine and keep you one step ahead of those pesky wine snobs.4.) Food & Wine Pairings: For those of you who enjoy pairing food and wine, I'll be featuring recipes and pairing suggestions to help you create than magical synergy of 1 + 1 = 3. Whether it's "Fast & Fabulous" recipes for everyday enjoyment or "Menus for Entertaining" there's wine pairings at every price point to suit your budget as well as your occasion.5.) Special Events: Do you enjoy socializing with other wine lovers? Whether it's "The Art of Wine and Food" at the Museum of Art Fort Lauderdale, the upcoming Boca Bacchanal or The 2nd Annual Country Club Chef Showdown I've got lots of fun wine loving events on my calendar for 2013. Check back often for updates!Cheers,
