B&B – Eartha Kitt, Champagne taste

June 8th, 2010


Découverte récente mais de taille. Cette version live de ‘Champagne taste’ est un petit bijou.

Do you want to take me cruising on an ocean liner to places I looooooong to see…

Well, with my champagne taste and your beer bottle pockets, don’t forget to write me when you get there in your row-boat when you’ve paddled across the sea without me.

Do you see us dining on caviar and pheasant with decedents of royalty.
Well with my champagne taste and your beer bottle pockets, I’ll be having pheasant while you’re dining with the peasants dunking donuts in a diner without me.

You said you have ambition to make my dream come true, well brother you just keep right on wishing and all of my dreams will come true… without you.

Do you see me in a Jaguar with all the accessories and one of those accessories is YOU? Well with my champagne taste and your beer bottle pockets, take back your Jaguar accessories etcetera and drive back to your dreamland without me.

And if I wanted diamonds you’d offer me breakfast at tiffanies and luncheons at Cartier’s you’d recommend. Well with my champagne taste and your beer bottle pockets you will have to work-on something better than a zircon because your diamonds is this girl’s worst friend.

You said you’d promise me anything to make my life a feasssssssst. You didn’t give me anything, not even Arpege you beast!

And it wouldn’t surprise me if a lady like Godiva had someone like you to give her the stole.

For with her champagne taste and your beer bottle pocket when she couldn’t get those dresses she just let down all her tresses and forgot she was a lady after all.

So if you want me to become apart of your permanent employ, before my champagne fizzles come up with the real McCoy. Show me you can separate the MAN from the BOY and bring me a constant life of champagne taste.

Taste Grapes Before Harvest – Checks Maturity of Merlot

May 8th, 2010


http://www.ovineyards.com/public_html/blog/blog.html

So I know this is really late, but this is a video about tasting grapes. It was almost harvest time at O’Vineyards when I filmed this so we were tasting the grapes hoping that they’d be sweet and mature enough to send to the lab for some official results.

The video gives some wine maker insights from Ryan O’Connell into the complicated task of eating and tasting a grape. Okay, so it’s pretty simple, but there’s a video for you anyway.

It turns out that the Merlot is in fact ready for lab analysis and the ICV lab returned something like 14.4 potential sugar so we were ready to harvest that Merlot.

If you want to see a cool explanation of refractometers you should check out this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhnZETxe1jk
