The nice thing about it is that we get to go in to a private room with a handful of other media folks and pour ourselves wine and take notes.<\/p>\n<p>It really is a great experience because you\u2019re not fighting crowds and you get some definite \u201cquiet time\u201d with the wines!! I took a photo of each label we tasted and Annie took some notes.\u00a0 Check out our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/63885600@N03\/?changedlayout=1\" target=\"_blank\">Flickr Page<\/a> to see the pictures.\u00a0 We only tasted 15 or so of the 100-ish wines in the room, but they were ones we specifically wanted to taste.<\/p>\n<p>A huge, big, ginormous, Rhone-tastic shout-out to the folks at Hospice du Rhone for letting us be a part of this truly unique event.<\/p>\n<p>Side note: as many of you read earlier this week, Annie lost her grandfather and wrote a nice little piece about him.\u00a0 Hoot wanted to add his two cents. I only knew her grandfather for about five years, but I include him in my top five of best people. He had a way about him that is not describable\u2026it was more of a presence, a lot like my grandfather had prior to his passing in 1996. These were\/ are truly great men that worked their asses off and I wanted to give my own \u201cthank you\u201d to Annie\u2019s grandpa\u2026it was a pleasure to know you and you have certainly been a huge motivation for me!!<\/p>\n<p>Cheers folks, have a fantastic Friday\u2026live in the moment, work hard, be nice, and enjoy the ones you love!!<\/p>\n<p>[youtube]http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=D_QK_w20Ymk[\/youtube]<\/p>\n<h6 class=\"zemanta-related-title\" style=\"font-size: 1em\">Related articles<\/h6>\n<ul class=\"zemanta-article-ul\">\n<li class=\"zemanta-article-ul-li\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hootnannieblog.com\/2011\/06\/the-girl-and-the-fig-at-hopsice-du-rhone\/\">The Girl and the Fig at Hopsice du Rhone!<\/a> (hootnannieblog.com)<\/li>\n<li class=\"zemanta-article-ul-li\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hootnannieblog.com\/2011\/05\/our-sommelier-is-in-the-house-at-hospice-du-rhone\/\">Our Sommelier is in the House at Hospice du Rhone<\/a> (hootnannieblog.com)<\/li>\n<li class=\"zemanta-article-ul-li\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hootnannieblog.com\/2011\/05\/hospice-du-rhone-rose-lunch-outstanding\/\">Hospice du Rhone Rose Lunch; OUTSTANDING!!<\/a> (hootnannieblog.com)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"zemanta-pixie\" style=\"margin-top: 10px;height: 15px\"><a class=\"zemanta-pixie-a\" title=\"Enhanced by Zemanta\" href=\"http:\/\/www.zemanta.com\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"zemanta-pixie-img\" style=\"float: right\" alt=\"Enhanced by Zemanta\" src=\"http:\/\/img.zemanta.com\/zemified_a.png?x-id=8bfc7522-857b-4804-8265-50d2b97bd4ce\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We had the opportunity to be part of the most Rhoning-est media tasting at Hospice du Rhone\u2026well, because they consider us media (imagine that)!!
