Brian's First Blog!
Hello Huff Readers!

My name is Brian Hanna and I am the in-house sommelier here at Huff Estates. If you have visited us here at the tasting bar or done a tour of our facility then there is a good chance that we have met. With the launch of our new site I am happy to say that this blog is a good way for me to keep in touch with all of you and I hope to hear back from many of you. This is my first blogging experience so I am going to keep it brief and look forward to your feedback!

If you were asked to name the five most memorable wines you have ever tasted, there would probably not be much in common among them. It could be that lively, crisp white you had in the hot tub or that seductive Cabernet at the chalet during last winter's ski vacation or perhaps that bright, jazzy tantalizingly tart Huff Estates rose you discovered at our tasting bar, but I'm willing to bet that in each instance, the surroundings, those around you, and the mood counted more than the quality of the wine itself. Wine is the common denominator that binds us and, to my mind, it is meant to be enjoyed daily as part of a healthy lifestyle.

Give us your thoughts on the sublime harmony or discordance of wine and food pairing that you would enjoy passing on to our fellow Huff readers. Describe your awakening wine experiences whether with friends, on vacation or even hosting themed dinners.

Santé,

Brian Hanna

Hi Brian, one of my most memorable sippers was in the private tasting room at Mumm's with some of my best friends and colleagues sipping vintage Champagnes along with the winemaker!!

It was a small intimate dinner party, 3 couples all very good friends. The dinner was roast beef with pommes roti and the wine a Clos Eglise. Not much of a wine connaiseur but the atmosphere, the company, the food and wine all combined to make a memorable evening.
