Born and raised in Los Angeles.
While attending dinner party at a young age, I took notice of a wine served, and how well it worked with the meal. Mesmerized. I can say that is where this all started.
I landed a job in a wine and cheese department in 2000 where a co-worker spoke about wind and sunshine hours and vineyard orientation and ML. I was blown away and have dedicated lots of time and money to the study of wine.
Attended Int'l Sommelier Guild in 2003-04. Learned a lot of new regions and wines.
I write articles and schedule wine tastings in Los Angeles.
....based on the overall quality and depth of the wine list and cellar.
All over California and to Tequila.
Love it and would see it again.......

Proprietary blends that cost too much and wine lists that show a lack of enthusiasm....
...someone who noses their wine and keeps nosing it. And that's OK with me!
