Another site, same old Academic.
Wine, whisky, beer and all that jazz.

The Vancouver Goldeneyes have a player whose last name is “Cava” and I think I love this team already. It speaks to me on a very basic level.

What’s the most polite way to say “Bitch, don’t kill my vibe” while at a tasting event?

Hell of a drop off in product going up north. Wonder how much longer this will go on for.
U.S. wine export markets have contracted substantially. In April, the year-over-year export value dropped by 41.4%, worsening the 28% decline recorded in March. The three main export destinations for U.S. wine—Canada (-93%), the UK (-29%), and China (-70%)—all reported significant decreases.

Losing close friends that are also members of the industry never gets any easier.

Love, thanks, and eternal blessings Kim and Dorota. Thank you for everything. I wish there was more time to learn from the both of you. Next round is on me.

Today I should have been writing a qualification exam but due to work related bullshit a month ago I had to reschedule. While this absolutely fucking sucks, I take a modicum of solace in the fact that the market that I would be writing in had a dumping of snow yesterday.

Today, for one of God’s beautiful creatures, a double magnum of rosé was a good idea. Godspeed you.
