Z Gallerie Skull Red Wine

Filed under: Wine

Most of the time wine is presented as upscale, reserved, and elegant, but Z Gallerie went a slightly different direction with with Skull Red Wine. The label art, designed by and for Z Gallerie exclusively, is a fairly gritty looking black and white human skull. I like it, and although it is a little "dark" in mood I think it still has an interesting elegance about it -- just with an extra edge. The wine inside is a 2005 Miramonte Cabernet Sauvignon with blueberry, blackberry, and bing cherry notes along with lavender, fresh mocha, and toasted oak. $65

Cool Ice Jewels

Bagged ice is the norm for parties, if for no other reason than it is convenient. But not only do the bags not look particularly stylish, but the ice is nothing to write home about either. The "cubes" are more like chips and melt too quickly into the drink. The point of all this is that it is much more satisfying to have one or two large cubes of ice that will melt slowly - and it doesn't hurt if they look fantastic in the glass, too. Form and function are the two selling points for the Cool Jewels Ice Tray ($8.95) from Z Gallerie.

I wouldn't hesitate to add a few drops of food coloring to enhance the jewel shapes of the ice, but looking like giant, clear diamonds doesn't sound too bad, either.
