About Me
I’ve been in the wine business in both Australia and the US for almost 30 years with experience in the retail, wholesale, import, wineries and hospitality industries and have a passion for all things wine.
In addition I’ve written a monthly newsletter for several years, taught classes and now, a blogger. I’m a firm believer in the saying ‘good friends, good food and good wine’! I also believe you don’t need an event to open a great bottle of wine, the opening of a great bottle of wine is the event.
