The Monday Morning Memo

Season 1, Episode 2

Claret is a “recipe” wine like Chianti.
And frankly, it’s most often
a recipe for disaster.

   Merlot 46%,
   Cabernet Sauvignon 32%,
   Malbec 8%,
   Cabernet Franc 7%,
   Petit Verdot 7%

To make matters worse,
this is a Texas wine.

Texas? Wine?

Like I said, “Obscure.”

But the grapes for this classic Bordeaux blend were proudly grown by three determined women of the High Plains of Texas: Brenda Canada, Laverne Newsom, and Betty Bingham.
 

This is pure saxophone music: Kenny G.
If you don’t like Kenny G., don’t buy this wine.
If you love Kenny G., buy all you can find.

If you don’t know Kenny G. and you’ve never tasted Becker Claret, listen to the music below and you’ll have all the information you need to make an informed decision. 

Aroo.

Random Quote:

“What remains surprising about Byron Haskin’s Mars so many years later is how, in its starkly inhospitable view of the planet, it dashes all hope of an exotic world worth exploring and presents a grounded view of a practically uninhabitable planet. Transposing Daniel Defoe’s literary masterpiece from a tropical island to an extraterrestrial wasteland of unexpected verisimilitude, Robinson Crusoe on Mars quickly dispenses with the more adventurous aspects of survival and uses its setting to explore themes of isolation and loneliness. It masterfully dramatizes the discovery that outer space is not a playground for adventure but a vast, cold, oppressive emptiness.”

- 2013 Alamo Drafthouse review of the 1964 movie, Robinson Crusoe On Mars
