It's A Vegas Bachelorette Party and Vulnerable...Jeff?! SIP.WATCH.TWEET™


Jeff Loves Zoila

A Vulnerable Jeff?! Flipping Out SIP.WATCH.TWEET™
With Roederer Estate L'Ermitage Rose

Sarah's wedding is a-comin' so of course the gang is throwing her a bachelorette party! Where? A Las Vegas strip club! The boys [Gage and Jeff] looked so uncomfortable with the strippers. Oh, did I mention this was a FEMALE strip joint? Jeff admits his unease when he says "Sarah, was more comfortable with the strippers than we were...In fact, she enjoyed them. She may want to rethink this <marriage>."Preview and Judge for Yourself

We see a rare gem tonight, REAL melancholy emotions and vulnerability from Jeff. Not even when Jeff's ex-business partner and boyfriend, Ryan Brown betrayed him did we see Jeff at his most vulnerable. When Zoila doesn't immediately wake up out of anaesthesia, Jeff is visably worried and tearful. It looked as though he was almost in a panic, he paid for Zoila's cosmetic surgery for her birthday. Could Jeff be running through that in his mind? That if the worse should happen, it was somehow HIS fault? For the first time in four seasons, you want to just hug him and tell him everything will be okay. Click To Preview a Lovable Jeff



Now on to the SIP of SIP.WATCH.TWEET™
Roederer Estate L'Ermitage Rose

This Northern California sparkling wine is brought to us by the producers of the champagne house of Louis Roederer. All of the quality of Cristal Champagne, with half of the cost. The winemaker is no stranger to the House of Roederer, as he interned there while in school for both viticulture and enology. All grown up he now brings his education AND experience to the Roederer Estate as a master winemaker. 

Mostly Chardonnay grapes topped off with macerated Pinot Noir, giving it faint, almost sheer color hues of salmon and cotton candy. The tiny bubbles, indicating superiority, bring aromas of challah, panettone and dutch apple pie. The taste is complex and round with layers of citrus and vanilla notes; key lime pie, satsuma, kumquat and pound cake . On the finish it has flavors of fennel and star anise. The finish leaves your palate on an invigorating and pleasing acidic note.

This time someone is FLIPPING OUT on Jeff! SIP.WATCH.TWEET™ Flipping Out!

We're Flipping Out with Jeffrey Lewis
SIP.WATCH.TWEET™ with Feudo Maccari Saia
Preview the tables turning on Jeff: CLICK HERE

Although no longer flipping houses, you can rest assured he is always on the verge of FLIPPING OUT. However, I wonder if having Gage, who is in charge of Jeffrey Lewis' company Business Affairs AND Jeff's boyfriend around makes him more mellow. Selfishly for entertainment purposes, I sure hope not! And from the sneak peek of the season, it looks like it has had no impact on his personality. Check it out: CLICK HERE

This episode doesn't disappoint, he attends what he thought would be a private dinner party; turns out not only are there a lot of people, as Jeff said "This is like a Meet & Greet. That's work. And I get paid for that." He was ambushed, or as he stated "Sucker-punched" by a woman who paid for his hotel lodging only to have Jeff cancel the engagement...Yes, this is going to be good...

Now on to the SIP part of SIP.WATCH.TWEET™


Feudo Maccari Saia- Nero d'avola

This is a sensational Sicilian wine, especially for the cost. Made with 100% Nero d'avola grapes Saia is almost an opaque dark orchid blended with deep violet color hues in your glass. The nose has aromas of black currant, marion berry and mint. The fragrance compliments the flavors of dark plum, blueberry, blackberry fruit with hints of allspice and nutmeg intermingled. The finish is lush, full bodied, silky and long with a lingering taste of red cherry and white pepper.

During the summer months I usually make my grandfather's Sicilian Sangria recipe but last night I tried something different. I'll share it with you and hope you try it and love it as much as I did.
Sexy Sicilian
One bottle of Nero d'avola
One cup of Campari
One cup of pulp-free OJ
Mix and put it in the freezer for about an hour then serve.

So whether you are sipping a glass of Feudo Maccari Saia- Nero d'avola or sipping my summer Sexy Sicilian wine cocktail. Don't forget to tune into Bravo TV tonight and every Wednesday at 9p/EST and you too can SIP your wine [or cocktail], WATCH Flipping Out and TWEET about on Twitter.
