my love of the grape.


Last night, I joined my colleague Kate and her boyfriend Trevor to this cozy wine bar in Carrol Gardens - Black Mountain WineHouse. Trevor happens to occasionally work here, and helped us wisely choose an enjoyable bottle (or two). He then gave us a mini wine lesson and how different wines are categorized - European wines usually by region, American by grape, and so forth.

Amid conversation we did have time to order food - mac-n-cheese with mushrooms and truffle oil was a hit. If you are in the area, you should definitely check it out. The lit fireplace in the back definitely adds a warm environment and makes you feel at home!
