Every year that we I have attended the Boston Wine Expo, I have found different items that are new and pleasing to my palate. In previous years, there have been the baked goods of Sweet Santangelo's, Farnum Hill Hard Cider, and Tillen Farms pickled vegetables. This year the fine tradition of flavorful delights continued.
My favorite food discovery at this year's Expo was To Die For Dips. These wonderfully delicious dips created by Margaret Hammill were my favorite snack at the show. With a plethora of options from cheese to chocolate to Alaskan pasta salad, the choice should

Saviez Vineyards
by TT on February 24th, 2008 | Wine News
Recently, I attended the Boston Wine Expo. Out of the hundreds of vineyards there, one had a story that made it very memorable. That vineyard is Saviez Vineyards, located in Calistoga, California.
Fortunately, I was able to visit the Saviez Vineyard booth before the Expo was open to the public. This gave me more time to speak with Mike Saviez, Sales & Marketing Manager. After sampling a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon, I asked Mike about his vineyard.
We discussed the wines produced at their vineyard, and I was most interested in the story of a newer wine, Yogi's Reserve Petite Sirah. In

Just having negotiated confusing travel from our hotel to the Seaport World Trade Center, it was a relief to find the check-in to be quick and painless. Once given our badges, we entered the main floor of the exposition.
Standing in the doorway, there was a sea of booths to explore. (About eighty percent of the booths were for wineries,
