Lane, just looking at redwine again. I spun down quickly and found this lovely piece:
Vina Pomal Rioja Riserva (Spain) 1997
Underneath the bull
It can sometimes smell like this
Secrets of the barn

I'm not saying this is my favorite -- yet. But it's what I love in haiku. A haiku, when it works, is a little epiphany. And this achieves that. The poem is commenting on wine, but it works powerfully without the wine. Erase the poem's title, and the other meaning of the poem comes sharply into focus. The reference in the poem to the wine is the lone word this. Take away the title and the wine reference, and "this" becomes a myserious, potent odor. But what is it? Who dares to smell it, to find himself beneath the bull? Not I.

='Brand New News Fr0m The Timber Industry!!'=

========Latest Profile==========
Energy & Asset Technology, Inc. (EGTY)
Current Price $0.15
================================

Recognize this undiscovered gem which is poised to jump!!

Please read the following Announcement in its Entierty and
Consider the Possibilities�
Watch this One to Trad,e!

Because, EGTY has secured the global rights to market
genetically enhanced fast growing, hard-wood trees!

EGTY trading volume is beginning to surge with landslide Announcement.
The value of this Stoc,k appears poised for growth! This one will not
remain on the ground floor for long.

KEEP READING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

===============
"BREAKING NEWS"
===============

-Energy and Asset Technology, Inc. (EGTY) owns a global license to market
the genetically enhanced Global Cedar growth trees, with plans to
REVOLUTIONIZE the forest-timber industry.

These newly enhanced Globa| Cedar trees require only 9-12 years of growth
before they can be harvested for lumber, whereas worldwide growth time for
lumber is 30-50 years.

Other than growing at an astonishing rate, the Global Cedar has a number
of other benefits. Its natural elements make it resistant to termites, and
the lack of oils and sap found in the wood make it resistant to forest fire,
ensuring higher returns on investments.
T
he wood is very lightweight and strong, lighter than Poplar and over twice
as strong as Balsa, which makes it great for construction. It also has
the unique ability to regrow itself from the stump, minimizing the land and
time to replant and develop new root systems.

Based on current resources and agreements, EGTY projects revenues of $140
Million with an approximate profit margin of 40% for each 9-year cycle. With
anticipated growth, EGTY is expected to challenge Deltic Timber Corp. during
its initial 9-year cycle.

Deltic Timber Corp. currently trades at over $38.00 a share with about $153
Million in revenues. As the reputation and demand for the Global Cedar tree
continues to grow around the world EGTY believes additional multi-million
dollar agreements will be forthcoming. The Global Cedar nursery has produced
about 100,000 infant plants and is developing a production growth target of
250,000 infant plants per month.

Energy and Asset Technology is currently in negotiations with land and business
owners in New Zealand, Greece and Malaysia regarding the purchase of their popular
and profitable fast growing infant tree plants. Inquiries from the governments of
Brazil and Ecuador are also being evaluated.

Conclusion:

The examples above show the Awesome, Earning Potential of little
known Companies That Explode onto Investor�s Radar Screens.
This s-t0ck will not be a Secret for long. Then You May Feel the Desire to Act Right
Now! And Please Watch This One Trade!!


GO EGTY!

I really enjoy your wine haiku reviews, but would it be possible for you to date the haiku's so I know when I'm looking at new ones?

Thanks!

Lane, I just read about your haiku on jancisrobinson.com who read about you in an LA Times article. I love it.

Would you mind if I used your Guilliams haiku on our site? We are an illinois based distributor and sell Guilliams. We have always liked how thier wines change with air time and you captured it. We are at www.candidwines.com. Thanks!

Just wrote a post about this and thought I'd share since you were in it. I'm a wine writer who avoids writing wine reviews, a poet who skips over the haiku.

Tasting notes scare me
due to my humble palate.
Haikus give me hope.

With the multitude of alcohol-related horror stories in the news these days it seems to me that you and other wine lovers (and wine tasters) need to get your message out to more people. Let people know that drinking wine in moderation has been shown to have many health benefits. Spread the news about the fun and good times you have experienced with wine drinking and wine tasting :-)

If you are interested in wine making then you need to do a little homework before you get started. Wine making is not

something that you can just plunge into and learn along the way, you need to do some research so that you know that you

are not missing any vital wine making steps or processes. If you do miss these wine making your wine could very well turn

out tasting like anything but wine.

Wine making is a something fun that you can do in your spare time and at the end you will have a glorious result. Wine

making is something that people tend to get hooked on because the very first batch is not usually perfect, it may taste

delicious but it will not be perfect. As you learn about wine making and as you get the wine making experience behind you

your wine will get better and better. You will undoubtedly pick up tips and tricks to help you improve your wine making

capabilities.

Hi, loved your haiku for Rock Rabbit Syrah 2003 - I quoted it in my writeup. It's one of the nicest inexpensive Syrahs I've tried lately.

Hello!

I have gone through your websites mentioning the interests on haiku. I cant help but to share interest with you, as I have just written a book on haiku titled “Antologi Haiku 2006”. Its actually a book on Japanese haiku written in Malay with English and Japanese translation. If you would like to know more about it, don’t hesitate to visit my weblog at:

Totally brilliant, I love it! I've been posting about Ancient Chinese and Japanese poetry that references wine (Li Po, Han Shan, Issa, Sung P'o, etc.) on our blog, and was fishing around for wine-themed Haiku when I stumbled across your blog. Again, I love it! I'm going to add this to our blogroll, and mention it in a post as well. Kudos!
