There are plenty of people who know about wine, but not many who can talk about it to anyone outside of the industry

Five Things To Know About Me:

1) I love wine…a lot.

2) I have worked with, studied, talked about, and most importantly drunk wine for many years.

3) I am a New Yorker (who has called London home for the past 8 1/2 years).

4) I was a professional actress until I decided that since I liked wine just as much as I liked acting, I should perhaps combine the two and become a wine presenter.

5) I am left handed and an excellent whistler (just wanted to make sure you’re still reading!)

    Adventures with Vino

    December 2009: Opening a 1986 Reserva Brunello di Montalcino...to be had with rare steaks, delicious!IMG_1227.JPGLeeuwin Estate wines from the Margaret River in Western Australia. I visited this winery in 2007, but was thrilled at the chance to re-try particularly their Art Series (and not just because of their pretty labels!) at the Australia trade tastings
    At the Wine Gangs Christmas Fair (ok it was held in the beginning of November...) (photo by Marisa Quintanilla)After a marathon wine tasting evening the night before, we decide a quiet night in to be more our pace. Good food (gnocchi with pesto), good company (Whitney Adams and Soren Specht, our viticulture student host), and of course good wine (an interesting, herbaceous Vinja Barde from the Friuli region of Italy).A 12,859 euro magnum of Lafite Rothschild anyone?!
    La Casa del VinoOn the job...Another highlight was the Moreson winery in Franschhoek--the best Pinotage I tried in S.A.
