Tell us something about your bad self...
"What consumers want is reliable beverage products, and, once wine is a reliable beverage product, it isn’t quite wine. Demanding absolute excellence on an unchanging universal numerical scale is not, after all, our usual measure of sensual engagement." --Adam Gopnik.

Don't trust ratings, trust yourself. Don't be a consumer, be a Wino.

Hey Jesse. it's been a while I guess. I was at my monday night tasting class at Vendome Toluca Lake and my girlfriend mentioned you guys were at LA Wine Fest! I was there pouring and tasting of course. Surprised I didn't run into you. I so want to come again soon, but with my monday tasting and all the other pourings in between, it can be difficult. Any weekend fun I can get into with ya?

Boston looks like late July/early August kind of thing. Going for an MBA program, so I should be well within the wine drinking demographic. Looking forward to some SF meetings!

Hey sloppy - way to spell 'aquarium'.

YES--so exciting. I'm a phantom Wino no longer.

Not to be difficult, but...well, to be difficult, why are Nichole
(who made quite astute comments) and the wine I brought (http://www.sebekawines.com/wines/shiraz/Shiraz.html) nowhere to be seen? No love for the second Sebeka?
