MCBEE'S WINE DIARY

THE MCBEE WINE BLOG DIARY

My mother, Camille McBee, partnered with Bobby G. Smith, Winemaker, in North Texas for over 30 years. Together they worked to develop a National and International name for Texas Wines. In 2009 she passed away too young, but she left behind a Texas Wine Industry that was better because of her dedication and she left a family with a deep rooted love and appreciation for wine and entertaining. This blog serves as a diary of my adventures in wine and as a lasting toast to my mother. -Cheers!

This blog is NOT intended to be the authority on tasting notes, or a professional guide for wine experts; it's simply a place for me to share some of my opinions and findings about wine with my friends and other wine lovers.

I truly hope you will use this blog to help you the next time you are thinking about what to buy at the wine store or deciding what to order at a local restaurant or when you travel to the wine country. ENJOY!

November 3rd, 2012: HEADED TO THE WINE COUNTRY

It's here... We are headed to the wine country to celebrate 40 years of drinking wine... wait, no that would be just 40 years of life... drinking wine is more like 19 if you take away 21. Something like that anyway.

We are off to Napa Valley with a few close friends to eat at some great restaurants, tour some really cool wineries, sample some good wine and have a good time with close friends.

It is such a special place to my family and I know that my mom is looking down on Clay and me this week. Look for some great posts in the coming week.

NAPA VALLEY, HERE WE COME!
