Here are some wine links to tide your day over.
- Vintage America is a new series on Eater National by Talia Baiocchi. Each weekly installment will traverse through the pockmarked timeline of U.S. winemaking history. Get your wine history geek on, say goodbye to your social skills.

- Master of Wine, Tim Hanni, wants to know what you drink, when you drink it, why you drink it, what would make you drink more or less, and what you could drink that would make you take your pants off the fastest (the last one is made up, and rather creepy.) Take his survey on wine consumer preferences, now, comrade!
- “The 100 point rating system is a clumsy and useless tool for examining wine. If wine is, as we believe, a subjective, subtle, and experiential thing, then by nature it is unquantifiable.” – Score Revolution. If you’re anti-Parker Points, these people are your merry men.
- For your wine porn pleasure, Jamie Goode hosts his 2nd annual Champagne Blind Tasting with his brother in law, William. Besides the CO2 evaporating into the air, the accents and wine knowledge are so thick you may choke. Viewer beware.
- And finally, because I know your lazy ass needs a good whoopin’, and since I’m certainly not qualified, how ’bout 3 Star Chef Gordon Ramsay swears at your sorry ass?
