You know those ideas you have that never get implemented? The nagging feeling that you should be doing something with your passion, but you don't know exactly what? This blog is my answer to that nagging feeling in the back of my head. After a couple gentle nudges from some friends, online and off, I thought I would finally start sharing my experiences, advice and feelings about wine.

Now, I'm not going to tell you I'm an expert. I honestly don't think there is any such thing when it comes to wine. Experts, in my opinion, are folks just like you and I who seem to have a better medium for expressing an opinion. Those mediums vary these days from television to magazines and everywhere in between. What I will tell you is that I have a love of wine. Along with my wife, we've been exploring the hills and valleys of the massive wine industry and enjoying the gentle ride. It's ever changing visage keeping it interesting and exciting. Each vintage release giving you that stomach-churning first day of school fervor.

I'll be sharing my experiences, current and retrospective, in this blog. My hope is to share some knowledge as well as learn some, too. Please feel free to comment on anything you find here. My palate is far from perfect, but it is mine. Yours, too, is different and filled with many different experiences. So, let's discuss some wine, learn from each other and maybe we can have more fun with something we already enjoy so much!

Ciao!
