An oldie but goodie. You betta WACHAU
The following blog is another old blog I am bringing back from Cueva Bar's vault. Timewise is not synchronized. I wrote this blog right before summer about two years ago before the world turned upside down. Also, this post reminds me of the delicious Austrian wines I can get from Tami Wong.

Today I am sharing details about a new Austrian wine I feel very excited about.
Summer is upon us but San Diego lingers in a mix of all the other seasons. Isn't it so? Today it seemed as though the sun was coming out. The warm rays of the sun were quickly cooled with a spring-like breeze that made the feeling of being alive quite comfortable, almost as if I was flying above Domäne Wachau (WARNING: fasten your seat belts before clicking on DOMÄNE WACHAU) in Austria where one of the wines we're featuring this coming Saturday comes from. Check out these cool picks that I didn't take but are available on google when you search for Domäne Wachau.
