Happy Valentine’s Day everybody! Today truly is a very happy day for wineries and special production vintners all around the world, who have come to truly and totally LOVE Valentine’s Day.

So for the most romantic day of the year wine should be present, but it’s not just the drink that can spice up your special couples day.

Aside from the main plot of the series, in the pilot the main character “Neal Caffrey” escapes prison just months before finishing out a four-year sentence. He is searching for his wife that apparently is leaving him. What he finds in her place is an empty bottle of wine.

Truth be told, gourmet culture can occasionally get a fickle and undecided, and numerous popular trends and fads in gourmet dining tend to pass from “pizzazz” into “passé” in a mere matter of months.

Such is NOT the case in the increasingly expanding and intensifying “Swine & Wine” craze that seems to just keep growing and growing by leaps and bounds on a weekly, if not daily basis.
