what i learned at spec's today

first, they will be opening a spec's at the RIM!!! no date set, but that's better than trekking to the 1604 & 35. it's supposed to rival the houston spec's that has a deli, chocolate section, etc.

second, spain is your man if you like the affordable reds. you pick up a $12 bottle and it's likely aged 12 years, much of that time in oak. also, if you're thinking about trying the $9 bottle, splurge on his big brother for $3 more. it may be called the "reserve" or "gran reserve," but it's worth it in most cases.

and finally, the cheese at spec's rocks. i picked up a nice honey goat cheese and an incredible triple cream brie. CAN'T WAIT!!!
