I'd love to post it in this group, would be fun to try and meet everyone - is this the right place to do it???? I don't want to be a spammer about it.

    I thought some of our Denver MLoveWine members might be interested in this upcoming event -

    Denver “Love to Wine” members are headed to Rialto Café, downtown Denver on 16th Street, this upcoming Wednesday, March 18th from 5-7 pm! (Yes, it’s the day after St Patty’s… but its wine we’re talking about — not beer!)

    Rialto Café is hosting a great wine and food pairing event for a new twist on the same-old happy hour scene — “Celebrate the Wines of South America.”

    Best of all, Rialto is so thrilled to host Love to Wine members at the event, that they have extended a special discount off of the posted event cost to all “LovetoWine.com” members and “Love to Wine” Facebook group members! Mention you are with Love to Wine at the door in order to receive your discount.

    Yneforuandme: Interesting article about the price of wine. I found the price to be part of the taste: I salivate more for $100 than for just $10, except in blind tastings. In blind tastings I found that very cheap wines do great and above $500 a bottle it's a waste.

Business Info

  • Business Name Lovetowine.com
  • Business Type from Luica (aka...Darcy...Lucia is just my Italian-wino-website-mascot)

    I created lovetowine.com because I got tired of trying to soak those stupid labels of the bottles - but I kept trying because it was the only way I could keep track of and remember the wines I really liked. It's not that I'm stupid....just a visual person and I need pictures. I actually use my own site almost everyday now to visually keep track of the wines I love and the ones that have been suggested to me by other lovetowine.com members and friends - the "share wine" function is just too cool.

    I love wine just like everyone else on this site. I'm a Mom, Marketing professional and an artist...I have scary "whole-brain" syndrome so I need lots of wine to tame the inner tug of war battle. I'd like to blame my wine drinking addiction to the chaos of parenting but my daughter's the best, nope the drinking of wine is purely my own fault.

    I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE meeting new friends, drinking wine with my friends, music, drinking wine while listening to music, traveling, drinking wine while on vacation, comedy, drinking wine and laughing, photography, drinking wine while admiring photos, theater, drinking wine at the theater, art, drinking wine while looking at and painting art...oh and I almost forgot to mention that I also love wine :)

    “For those of you who do not have a cellar stocked with hundreds and hundreds of bottles of wine nor have a full-time sommelier at your beckon call this site is a dream come true!”

    “Love to Wine” not only provides a vast database of wines with label images in which members can search and save favorites to their own private virtual wine cellar it also provides many other useful tools and resources that encompass the world of wine.

Our database includes not only the name of the wine but an image of the label (that can be printed out and pasted in wine journal) as well as the available pertinent information regarding that wine including food pairings retail price and the merit score (points).

If enjoyed at a restaurant you have the ability to save that information as well and recall all of the wines you have enjoyed there for future reference. This is a great tool for those who frequent the same restaurants and want to keep track of the wines on their list that they have enjoyed.

    Share wines:
    Share your favorite wines by submitting your ratings for the types you have enjoyed – join in Lucia’s blog for discussions and invite your friends to join “Love to Wine”. You can email your favorites from you virtual cellar or through our wine database search engine to your friends so that they may add them to their cellar as well.

    Enjoy your very own virtual wine cellar:

You may then search display and print the wines in your cellar in a variety of ways. Sort and display by alphabetical order, region, type, and winery, it’s up to you how you want to view and print your list. You can also choose to display either just the names of your wines or include the label image and for a full detail list add your personal notes as well.

  • What are tannins anyway?

    Posted December 4, 2008

      By: Darcy of Love to Wine   First impressions… Tannins in wine have been described (most commonly by novice wine drinkers) as making wine difficult to drink.  And not surprisingly so, since tannins are typically known for producing a “dry, puckered and fury”...
