the 5R's of wine

You are probaly wondering what the 5R's of wine are.

Simply put my 5R's are:
(d)rinking
(a)rithmetic
(r)eading
(w)riting
(t)ravel.
Over the next few months; in between my wine review posts I plan on fleshing out the 5R's and their importance to growth in personal wine appreciation. Don't worry - I have not missed Food & Wine, it factors into every one of my 5R's.

For dinner tonight we are having organic ribeye steaks with a crumbly blue cheese sauce (yum). We are debating between 2 wines on the rack - a Costieres de Nimes & an Aussie Shiraz, though I may grab a Pinot Noir on the way home. I'll let you know how the debate ends and how the wine paired with the meal.
