I wanted to create a fun and educational blog about wines with my friends who also love wine. This blog is a place created by wine professionals who have a passion for wine and enjoy sharing their stories and their knowledge with others. This is a place where you can learn about wine, the foods that go with them and the stories about the grapes, the producers, the region or anything else we think might be of interest. Here is a place to explore more about wine and feel comfortable trying something new.
Here is a short introduction to me and my fellow bloggers…
