Then it’s all about BURGERS…grilled, pad seared, broiled, America’s favorite outdoor food is getting a lot of press these days!  Books like “Burger Bar” by Hubert keller and leading food magazines like Saveur; i’ll give you my take on the perfect burger.

In the second half I’ll be talking to Tom Silberkleit about the latest edition in the series of California Directories of Fine Wineries – Central Coast edition.  Tom is a great guest and puts lots of work in to these books to showcase some of the finest wineries to add to your agenda when visiting.  Combined with the photography of Robert Holmes, this is another winner in the series.

2006 Cambria Katherine’s Vineyard Chardonnay

cambria chard06This classy 2006 Katherine’s Vineyard Chardonnay is bright with citrus, apple, peach, and vanilla aromas.  Rich mouth filling flavors of grapefruit, citrus blossom, white peach and sweet oak lead to a crisp finish with a lsting impression of spicy oak.  –  Dennis Shurtleff, Winemaker
