We only get to play this game one time, one life.

From age 16, I lived and breathed wine. I read every magazine and book about wine.

Storytelling is the game. It's what we all do.

It's not how many followers you have, it's how many care. It's not width, it's depth. It's not how many impressions you get, it's how much attention you get.

The Loire Valley is grossly underestimated. The prices are fair, and the wines are real.

The people who make the greatest wines in the world, they love their dirt, they pick it up, they coddle it, they kiss it, they put it in a jar and it sits on their mantle in the living room, because they know. They know.

Ignoring platforms that have gained critical mass is a great way to look slow and out-of-touch. Do not cling to nostalgia. Do not put your principles above the reality of the market. Do not be a snob.
