    • Hi Helen
      I just looked at the website for your business. What a concept! Home parties for wine tasting. That’s great. There’s another member here who is studying to be a master sommelier and she started a group called wine nouveau. You may enjoy participating in the posts there.

      I’m a chocolatier by trade so, as you know, interest in wine and chocolate tend to go hand in hand.

      If you enjoy movies, the movie “Bottle Shock” is out in theaters right now. It’s the story of the 1976 blind tasting in France where California wines were actually allowed to participate. The story is primarily about the owner of Chateau Montelena, Jim Barrett. Jim is an acquaintance of ours and his daughter works for my husband.

      Welcome to the site!
      Cynthia
