My Favorite Things

 

You may  have noticed I have a penchant for taking the lyrics for Christmas songs and butchering, I mean, modifying them to fit a winemaking theme.  Last year, was the “12 Days of Christmas”, during the harvest- “Twas the Night Before Christmas”, and, as you see from the title, this year will be “My Favorite Things” or as I have renamed it, “The Winemaker’s Favorite Things”.  I have included a youtube version of the music in case you want to sing along as you read.  No, that is not an attempt to draw attention away from my silly lyrics.  So here goes…

 

Raindrops in winter and bright summer sunshine

Bright golden medals and good homemade moonshine

Brown cardboard wine-shippers tied up with strings

These are a few of my favorite things

 

Bold fruity Merlots and crisp Viogniers

Malbecs and fat checks and champagne with beignets

Wine gifts and food gifts that Christmastime brings

These are a few of my favorite things

 

Short golden harvests before hibernation

This year’s vintage completes fermentation

Silver white winters that melt into springs

These are a few of my favorite things

 

When the frost bites

When the bee stings

When I’m feeling sad

I simply remember my favorite things

And then I don’t feel so bad

 

May your holiday season be filled with all of your favorite things!
