Drinking wine from sancerre region, at La Bocca; plus some cool flirting at Murphy's Law

Last night with Primo Greenleaf, Rahulio Ganpuleone was doing his usual Friday night shenanigans. First, he drank some wine samplers. The first sample was a Eola Hills pinot gris wine, from Willamette valley Oregon. It was an ok pinot gris grape wine, but nothing worth writing on this blog post extensively. The second sample was a 2014 Gravitas blended wine, from bonny doon vineyard (Santa Cruz, ca area). The second sample was a better white blended wine, of the two. Rahulio settled on a sauvignon blanc wine from Sancerre wine region of France, at La Bocca. The sauvignon blanc wine provided a crisp flavor for me. It is a true winner in my sommelier world! After La Bocca, Primo suggested we go to Murphy's Law in downtown chandler for some more drinking and Live Music! We ventured into the bar, and a beautiful young seductive lady (YSL) asked us about drinks. She was our waitress, Kimmy. She was a younger vixen that had incredible blonde hair. All of these nice features of the waitress led Rahulio to do some flirting, at Murphy's Law bar with Kim. Drinking beer and listening to live music became another fun part, of the night. Primo G. took in the people watching scene. Rahulio kept flirting with Kimmy, as she is a high school English teacher in Chandler. Anyways, enjoy the picture above of the Sancerre wine region. Sancerre is a small city in the Loire valley. The picture provides a panoramic view, and this town is on Rahulio's list of wine valleys to visit. Au Revoir mes amis!!

Smoking one of Dumas favorite books, in San Diego plus some cool debauchery!

This past weekend, G. Ripley traveled to San Diego again for a friend's bachelor party. The weekend involved staying at a nice house on Mission Beach, with six other amigos. The first night involved good dinner (tacos and italian food), good drinks (Mionetto Prosecco wine), and good story telling by yours truly with the six amigos. Later, G. Ripley drank smirnoff ice and ballast point california kolsch to close out a fun friday night. For Saturday, the day started with friends going to the pacific ocean. G. Ripley decided to go into the water, and this foolish act resulted in getting jeans and orange nike sneakers drenched. The jeans were dried up by the end of the day. The next adventure consisted of a beer tour, of Coronado brewing company and Modern Times Beer. Both breweries were cool to check out, as Lars the tour guide gave us good tips at each one. At Coronado brewing company, 'Best X ever' and 'Jurata' were the samples tried by G. Ripley. At modern times beer, four samples were imbibed. Modern times beer was the best of the breweries, if G. Ripley had to choose one. The ambience sparked my interest, as did the beers. Next, the plan for dinner came to fruition as the 'magnificent seven' ate good japanese food at 'bang bang sushi' restaurant in gaslamp district. More wine was on my mind, as cakebread sauvignon blanc became the vino of choice. After japanese food, we moved onto mina lounge for hookah and drinks. The count of montecristo was smoked by G. Ripley, and this joke is lousy. One Montecristo cigar was smoked by G. Ripley, while other friends smoked hookah. The last stop on Sunday night was a beautiful artistic display of women at Pacer's international GC. The females were nice as usual. G. Ripley enjoyed the LA, as RSG enjoyed Catalina's lips. This subtle action of romance was a part of the debauchery. Finally, Sunday was a day to check out of the house. The trip was fun, and a memorable time for NV wolverine. His wedding will take place in less than five weeks. Check out the picture of Montecristo cuban cigar, as G. Ripley enjoyed smoking this one for a good 50 minutes. Peace!
