Today I checked out a massive viñard right outside Santiago. There was no shortage of grapes, climate controlled cellars, classy wines, or free samples. I was pretty excited, and, even though my pallet is not even close to sophisticated enough, I thought the wines were tastey. And no, the wooden barrels in the basement were not for sale, and no, there wouldnt have been a discount on them if they hadn´t finished aging or fermenting. So far, so Santiago.

A real, live viñard.

This is the classiest I´ve ever been. Just let me bask in it for a second.

J.C. lives down the road from me. I´ve seen him buying groceries twice (mainly water and cookies that are a lot like Samoas, except they´re not the Girl Scout brand)

This is kind of a slight comment but if you ever get the chance to watch the Conan O'Brien clip where he goes to a vineyard, it's brilliant. And, less slight: Fantastic photos again. I don't think I've complimented you on your photos yet.
Concho y Toro, right? We'll put it in your baby book, right next to "baby's first pack of wild dogs attack". I agree with DJBrian, your pix are beautiful. The grapes look like harvest season is close.
Hey Phil, loving the photography!! The insight is great as well! Keep it up!!
You and J.C., huh? But does he have Bon Jovi like your old vecinos in Cuzco?
sounds like you are having fun! we miss you in Cuzco, though!
