Reflected glory?

Schatzi just sent us a link to a new video from Wine Spectator that includes Mike with two other winemakers who use grapes from Andy Beckstoffer’s To Kalon Vineyard in Napa. (In Mike’s case, the grapes are used in a Cabernet Sauvignon he makes for Realm Cellars.) Hope you’ll understand the parental pride and find the video interesting as well.

Throckirbys @ Bracco’s – Okoboji

We had a wonderful family weekend together on Lake Okoboji courtesy of Tom and Nyla. The weather was spectacular all weekend, the food was terrific – whether home-cooked or restaurant-served – and the company was simply the best. More photos, videos (!), and anecdotes to follow, but, as a teaser, here we are all together after enjoying a delicious lunch at Bracco’s restaurant on Sunday just before most of us departed.
