I am a wine lover with a vocation in the wine business that gives me an excuse to drink really good wine every day. I ferment stuff in my basement and grow grapes and often wonder what life would be like without grape juice, yeast, bees & glassblowers.

"Hi George,

Just wanted to reach out to you and say hello. I've noticed you've been entering 100's of reviews, always great to see that! I've also checked out your blog. I just wanted to let you know that if you are ever interested in guest blogging for Snooth I would be happy to make those arrangements.

In addition Snooth will also have articles soon that will be accessible from a new, revised home-page. Should you ever be inspired to want to write feature length articles we are actively looking for wine lovers like you.

Again thanks for the reviews. If you make it to NYC ever let me know. Perhaps you can join us for a blind tasting, or the Blind Tasting Challenge, this fall or just a few bottles over dinner sometime!

Best Regards

Greg"
