My guest this week is Dr. Joy Stephenson-Laws co-author of “MINERALS – The Forgotten Nutrient.”
Minerals are, in many ways, the unheralded and often forgotten heroes of keeping our bodies functioning at their best. While the nutrients carbohydrates, proteins and fat may be better well known, minerals are equally vital for helping us get and stay healthy.
They play a key role in combating disease, helping your body heal, managing ongoing chronic health problems such as high blood pressure, minimizing the impact of such common maladies as headaches and PMS, helping children grow up strong, enhancing mental performance at all ages, and fatigue. They truly are your secret weapon for getting and staying your healthiest.
In this easy-to-read and easy-to-use guide, pH Lab’s team of recognized medical doctors and specialists tell you about the role minerals play with common health issues along with detailed information about individual minerals. You’ll also learn more about the relationship between minerals and prescription medicines, why you need more than routine blood tests to see what minerals your body may need, and where you can get these tests.

Then Chef Eric Gephart – the Director of Culinary Inspiration for Kamado Joe Ceramic Grills joins us to tell you all about his “Dinner on the Grill + Wine Pairing” next Friday at All Things Barbecue.
The“Gran Reserva” line has won many awards and it is renowned worldwide. It is an outstanding “Smart Buy” year after year. The aromatic richness of this line perfectly matches the vanilla and chocolate from its 12-month ageing process in new French oak barriques. Deep red with violet hues, delicate aromas highlight ripe red fruits with hints of mint that are very harmonized with notes of vanilla and chocolate from oak. In the mouth, ripe plums stand out with very good acidity, hints of raisin and sweet tannins. Decanter 95/100 
Community Open House
This architectural drawing doesn’t do the new building justice! It truly is a work of ART and the interior is too, modern – high tech – spacious – and dramatic…
90% Tempranillo from a selection of the best grapes coming from 30 year-old, low yielding bush vines in the Rioja Alta and 10% Mazuelo from our Viña Lanciano vineyard. Destemmed and fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 30º C. The wine was then macerated for 3 weeks, over-pumping the must daily to favor higher extraction of color and aromas. Aged 24 months in American and French oak barrels, followed by a minimum of 36 months in the bottle. Garnet with ruby hues. Aromas of ripe red fruits combined with spicy notes from the aging in oak (Vanilla, cinnamon, fennel, licorice root) and tertiary aromas (Leather, cigar box…) from its prolonged bottle ageing. Full bodied and round, its mouthfeel is elegant and very well balanced. Pair with roasted meats, lamb, hearty stews and cured cheeses.

In keeping with the style established when the winery was founded, Chandon Brut Classic captures the expression of California’s vineyards. Its crisp and fresh flavor profile relies on a blend of the three traditional grape varietals used in Champagne — Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier — and adds a celebratory note to any occasion. Brut Classic consistently expresses our signature flavor profile of apple, pear and citrus flavors and aromas with a hint of spice that leads to a soft, dry finish.
