We decided to spruce up the content on Tavola Rosso and focus our food.wine.travel energies in a manner that might actually result in a few people (beyond our moms) reading this site.

Separately, I think, Liz, Mark, Nick and myself all had a little new years resolution including Tavola Rosso.  Mark resumed posted a week ago, Liz was just telling me about some recipes she wanted to post, and Nick sent me an email demanding that we get this thing going again (despite not posting for a year and a half ). To be fair, he did have some good ideas and the site was getting stale.

So… we’ll be focusing our food.wine.travel thoughts and posts on a specific region, state, provence, appellation or maybe even continent each month and digging deep for the really interesting content.  This could include pairing, a dissertation on the key players – who are the influencers, disrupters, region history lessons, the top brands to watch out for and to be aware of,  a geography lesson, look in to the notion of terroir, and the usual tasting notes and wines of the week.  We hope that this keeps us motivated to write and keeps you coming back to read more.

We’d like to welcome the new decade in with a closer look at the Champagne region.

To be continued…
