Wine is Everywhere!
Sommelier Jodi Fritch
I have great news for all of us wine enthusiasts … wine is everywhere. It’s as if the whole world is saying “cheers!”, all while endorsing your appreciation for the juice. If you’re as passionate about wine as I am, you have to agree … it’s AWESOME.
It’s being sold at fine wine stores, mega wine and spirit superstores, Target, Walmart, Sam’s Club, Costco, grocery stores, drug stores, you can even buy wine at gas stations (choose wisely, for selection is limited, but it will do in a pinch).
It’s on television and movies. All types of movies from romantic comedies to action packed thrillers. It seems that everyone has time for wine. I’ve seen it on soap operas and sit-coms. They are not just drinking this stuff either. They are going to wine tastings. They are owning vineyards. They are really involved.
This week I was blown away when my son informed me that he was given a bottle of Pinot Noir in the video game 
World of Warcraft. That’s right its even in video games now. At least it wasn’t any F***ING MERLOT!
So, stop anywhere, buy some wine. Pour yourself a glass and toast pop-cultures endorsement of your passion for the juice.
Seen wine somewhere surprising lately? Let me know or comment below.
Wow! They’re serving Pinot Noir up in video games. You’re right, I’m surprised it wasn’t Merlot. Too funny. Cheers to you, Jodi.

This is a real nice post i also bookmarked your site and look for more updates. thanks.
It does seem strange to see wine at Target. I don’t think I’ve ever bought it there. We are fortunate. My only beef is that in our city (Spokane) there is only one really good wine store that carries more than just your mass distributed selections…okay there are two, I just remembered the other.

Thanks Barry! I really appreciate the bookmark and the feedback!
@nectarwine – wow only two. Sometimes I get frustrated with our selection in Tampa. Often it seems like we have several options for shopping but then it seems like the selection is all the same. However, there are some that are really doing a great job. The main thing is just to keep supporting the two stores in your area that are doing a great job. Shipping gets a little more practical and affordable all the time as well.
Thanks for the comment!

I know even more odd to see in World of Warcraft than seeing it at Target (see josh@nectarwine comment).
Thanks for the comment.
