Poured Decisions

Do I want a glass of wine? You bet Shiraz I do.

Back in 2024, when I let a homestead go and leased a region, I named it ‘A River Runs Through It’. I searched for wine bar names, and the one that stuck out the most to me was Poured Decisions. When I let the leased region go in early 2026 and bought a region from Linden Labs, the name remained. The build on the leased region was more modern in design, and while lovely, it was not what I had in mind for Belle Reve. Since I was combining several past builds because I loved each one so much, I decided to use the Barnesworth Anubis Boseman Barn once again. It has the rustic feel I wanted, and just enough space to decorate it the way I envisioned.

The main room, with its soaring ceiling and loft area, is a large space but still gives an air of intimacy. The area in front of the fireplace is a place to sit and enjoy your favorite libation. The loft serves as a dining and wine tasting area, and most of the wines, charcuterie boards, and place settings are interactive or dispense your food or beverage choice, as are throughout Belle Reve.

The screened-in porch off to the right side of Poured Decisions is also furnished with dining and wine tasting choices.

The outdoor venue of Poured Decisions, accessible either off the porch or by walking around to the rear, also offers wine tasting and dining. Here you will also find an outdoor wood-fired stone pizza oven with a variety of pizza offerings, and a large dancing area with intan. You can play several different games at and near the bar. Wine and several other drink options are available as well.

Belle Reve, while a private residence, is open to the public 24/7. I love to landscape and decorate, then share it with the Second Life Community. Stop by, say hello if I am there, and please enjoy yourself.

The best wines are the ones we drink with friends.

When I first saw the Maple Studio by Apple Fall, I knew it had to be part of Belle Reve and what I wanted to furnish it with. Enter Nodnol Jameson of Kraftwork. Her Aster Winery Collection and Cannuci Wine Cellar pair well with the Maple Studio. I’ve also used several of Nods’ drink dispensers, the Small Light Trees, the Biarritz rug, and the Jardim topiaries. Bazar by Ria Forest place settings blend well with the rest of the furnishings. To be honest, I have used this place setting throughout Belle Reve Vineyard. The table is set with wine dispensers by Caroline Planer of No59, and dispensers also hang on the wall. I’ve used the Harvest Cheese Board by Winter Thorn of What Next and the Sweet Moments Charcuterie Board by (LUC). Frames on the wall are by Oaklynn’s own Bren Kenin. Apple Fall candles complete the overall look. +Half-Deer+ Clematis drape the arbor of the Maple Studio. Wine tasting and dining at its best. You will find landmarks below.

Be kind to one another. Find joy in all you do. Till we meet again♥
