Musings on the Vine was conceived with a few very simple goals.

• To share my passion and excitement of wine with anyone who cares to listen, and by doing so engender similar excitement in others.

• To strip away the mysteries surrounding the appreciation of wine, making wine tasting, buying and collecting fun and unassuming.

• To provide a resource for those people who don’t necessarily want to become a Master Sommelier, but instead just want to be able to buy something decent to drink with dinner tonight.
