After spilling all that emotion on the Ryder Cup, we’re craving something we can spill into a wine glass. No way your humble servant can effectively canvas the entirety of NYC , but we’ know who can…

As noted elsewhere in these pages, California cab is the American golfer’s wine of choice. So when the Tour visits Napa, you better believe there’s great golf-appropriate wine everywhere you turn.

It’s fitting for our mission that the culmination of the PGA Tour and FedEx Cup seasons happens in Atlanta.

No need to be crabby about the wine scene in Baltimore. We found some terrific options downtown.

I have one word for you regarding the wine scene in Memphis…corkage.

I was surprised by the seeming bounty of wine options in Greensboro. Maybe it’s the presence of multiple colleges or the way it sits in a belt between Winston-Salem and Durham, or maybe it’s just a happening place.

There is no shortage of options in the Twin Cities for a good wine experience. And while it’s hard to comment on an entire metro area, I always felt as if greatness remained just out of reach. Mara is a potential cure.

What comes first, supply or demand? The question occurred to me as I googled the wine scene in the Quad Cities early in the week of the John Deere Classic.

I wouldn’t guess from afar that Detroit would be a strong wine town. A lot of potentially good places don’t list their inventory online, but we’re confident in the choices here.

Hartford has at least three attractive restaurant lists to offer. If the collective golf world is leaking oil after watching the carnage of last week’s US Open, it can patch itself up nicely here.

While there’s no disputing the greatness of Oakmont or its difficulty, you’ll also have difficulty finding a great wine list in Pittsburgh. Steel yourself and see what’s out there…

I don’t know that any golf course on earth looks lusher and more beautiful on TV than Muirfield Village. Unfortunately, I didn’t see the same feast for the senses when I began looking for good restaurant wine lists and retail stores in Dublin, OH. I scouted dozens of websites and was almost at the point of despair until…

I’ve never been to Ft. Worth and have a vague idea that it’s a rustic, cow-friendly exurb about 30 miles west of Dallas. Them’s probably fighting words, so I apologize in advance to the wine-loving citizens of Ft. Worth and hope to visit one day.

The Swig Coach makes his first visit to Philly with the 2025 Truist Championship. The wine scene boasts a lot more excitement than the City’s general reputation for cheese steaks and hoagies would suggest.

As diehard Giant fans we find it difficult to say anything nice about Dallas, but there’s plenty to like about the wine scene if not that execrable football team and its equally obnoxious owner (he who should not be named).

The 2025 Sentry takes place in a sobered climate a year-and-a-half after the devastating and heartbreaking Lahaina wildfires. It’s no longer the Tournament of Champions, but there’s still a clear wine champion in Maui at Merriman’s. How do they do it?

Here’s an idea. Let’s get the PGA and LPGA tours together and play 3 days of goofy golf in Naples, FL, then maybe drink some good wine.

If you’ve been following me at all through the PGA season, you know I do my homework, which typically involves googling an entire city’s collection of restaurants and stores in search of the best wine.

The wine action here is all back in Denver...

It is quite possible and actually easy to drink great wine in Scotland if you’re traveling for the Genesis or Open Championship. Avoid the plonk and email the St. Andrews Wine Company now!
