In this week’s SIP o’ the week column, I’m featuring a wine gadget whereas I normally write about particular wines, cocktails, beers, etc. I’d like to introduce Üllo ($79.99) a nifty wine purifier that takes up very little space in your wine cellar or at the table.

RAISING THE BAR—the White Horse ain’t serving your daddy’s bar food

August 30, 2019 by Ted Scheffler Leave a Comment
