Just a reminder, the Hospice du Rhone Twitter Taste Live event is tonight. You can taste along with me, Dr. Debs of Good Wine Under $20, Thea of Vinquire/Luscious Lushes, Jason Haas of Tablas Creek, Joe White of Table for Joe and many more bloggers by going and signing up at the new site, Taste Live.

Also, I’m happy to report that the Anne Willan event is oversold. If you want to be on the wait list, let me know. Otherwise, maybe I’ll be able to convince Anne to do another class in the future.

Finally, I have a third event for May 1st in the works, a tasting with Italian producer Cantine A Casa. Details to follow later today or early next week, this will be a very budget-oriented evening in the $15 to $20 range, with the winemaker present. Check back soon for more info.

If you’re interested in wine and want a way to keep track of wines you’ve tasted, or bottles in your collection, a great place to do so is the site CellarTracker. Go over there and familiarize yourself with it. It’s really easy to use and offers the largest database of wines, along with a huge community of users who frequently post tasting notes.

Eric LeVine, the mastermind behind CellarTracker has recently become a Twitter user. You can follow him on Twitter here. And in a very significant feature addition to CellarTracker, Eric has just enabled Twitter functionality for all CellarTracker users, so that when you write a new tasting note, it will automatically post to Twitter with a link back to the CellarTracker data. Eric’s explanation and instructions can be found here.

This combo of two killer apps, a niche wine community with a Web 2.0 pioneer, could be a game changer.
