Best Of Both Worlds
Every once in a while two completely different entities combine to make one wonderful, new creation.
Tex and Mex
Chocolate and Peanut Butter
Wine and Pornography

I think that my favorite part of this whole thing is the following quote- "I wanted to do something that my parents could be proud of.”
Gosh, you mean they weren’t proud of career choice #1?

Samson went to Tuscany and tasted dozens of Cipresso's Italian-grown varieties, then she selected a mix of 70 percent Cesanese, 20 percent Sangiovese and 10 percent Montepulciano. She ordered over 400 cases.
