This weekend, the Wine Pairing Weekend crew takes you on a virtual Texas wine tasting with Michelle of Rockin Red Blog leading the way. You can read her invitation here.

So, for the first time, the #WinePW group is delving into wines from Texas. Between Friday, November 8th and Saturday, November 9th, our blogposts sharing Texas wines and food pairings will go live. Then you can join along with our live Twitter chat using the hashtags #WinePW and #Texasfinewine on Saturday morning at 8am Pacific time. Hope to see you there.

Here's a sneak peak of what we're sharing. Cheers!
