The virtual vintage experts at Wine.com have assembled an all-star wine lineup of easily adoptable bottle options. Those who prefer lighter quaffs will delight in fine white wines such as the Cliff Lede sauvignon blanc 2008, a Californian offering with tongue-tickling notes of iris, citrus, and white pepper ($25.99). Liven up hearty meats or dull blind dates with the Luca pinot noir 2008, which features wild strawberry, saddle leather, and cola root aromas decadent enough to make a cupcake's frosting blush pink ($31.99). Or opt for a truly sweet sip of Poet's Leap riesling 2009, whose starfruit and kumquat flavors and cheerful flavor disposition earned it 91 points fromThe Wine Advocate and ardent microscopic high-fives from appreciative taste buds ($19.99). Peruse a variety of highly-rated wines under $20, or opt for a gift set for your resident aspiring oenophile.

Wine.com focuses on educating its consumers, understanding that if you give a man a glass of wine, he will sip, but if you teach him how to shop for wine, he will become much more interesting at dinner parties. Each bottle listing is accompanied by a comprehensive flavor profile, with information on how it was processed, notes from the winemaker, and any juicy grape-related gossip about which vines were cross-cultured to produce it.

Geminids Meteor Shower Viewing Event: Telescopes & Dark Skies | Coyote Lake

Stargazers look directly up tonight around 1am to see a spectacular light show originating from the Comet 3200 Phaethon in the constellation Gemini (looking south, almost overhead,)

Coyote Lake- Harvey Bear Ranch County Park, near Gilroy , CA, will provide a prime spot for viewing the 2010 Geminid Meteor Shower.

Come to this guided viewing of the meteor shower with a park ranger in the early morning of December 14, 2010. There will be a brief lecture on tonight’s event and the ranger will have a few telescopes available for people to view through.

Why is the best viewing time for 2010 so late? Generally, the Geminids provide one of the best meteor shower shows of the year starting around 9 or 10 p.m. Unfortunately the moon this year does not set until after midnight, making it too bright to see earlier in the evening.

Peak activity for this shower will be occurring the night of December 13-14, 2010  around 2:00 a.m with approximately 50 meteors per hour. The chunks of rock from this defunct comet travel through space at 26 miles per second- that’s 93,600 miles per hour! - as they strike the earth’s atmosphere.

A park ranger will be stationed at the park’s paved Launch Ramp Parking Area, approximately two-miles from the entrance on Roop Road, from 1:00 a.m. to 3:00 a.m. to greet visitors and answer any questions.

Cost: FREE (in the past there has been a $6 parking charge, but we’ve been told its been waved for tonight)

What to Bring & Wear: Visitors to this event should dress for cold weather.  Attire should include insulated long pants and shirt, a coat, and a hat to keep you warm.  Also be sure to bring some hot coffee and /or cocoa to enjoy while watching the show.  Other items to bring if you have them are a comfortable lawn or camp chair, binoculars, and a telescope.

Directions: Coyote Lake is located 7 miles east of Gilroy, CA.  From U.S. Highway 101 exit on Leavesley Road and head east two miles to New Avenue.  Turn left and proceed north one-mile to Roop Road.  Turn right and head east into the hills approximately 4.5 miles to Coyote Lake Road.  Be sure to take the turn left into the park at  the Coyote Lake Entrance.  Proceed north approximately two miles to the viewing area.

Please RSVP, if you can, to let the ranger know approximately how many people to expect.chris.crockett@prk.sccgov.org; Questions?  Call Ranger Crockett at 408-842-7800

Please note that we have listed this event as started at 11:59pm so that it will show up on our 12/13 calendar – the event actually begins around 1am.
