Tasting Notes

I am extremely thrilled for the upcoming newsletter that will be released tomorrow morning! The transition from a weekly to a monthly newsletter has had its advantages and disadvantages. On one hand, I have been able to dedicate more time to other projects that needed attention, but on the other hand, I do miss my weekly spontaneous musings. Perhaps I should consider starting something where I have the freedom to ramble about anything. Regardless, visiting Walnut Ridge Winery, @walnutridgevineyard, right before Harvest was an extraordinary experience! The vineyard is absolutely stunning, the people are exceptional, and the wines were absolutely fantastic! The winemaker, Andrew Smith, was the previous winemaker at Antiquum. To read all about my experience and the wines, you must sign up for the newsletter. This month's newsletter includes a special bonus. Usually, I don't have the opportunity to sit down and have a one-on-one experience with the wines, but I was incredibly fortunate to take home samples. As a result, instead of writing brief thoughts about the wines we tasted, I was able to delve deeper into them! 👇 👇 👇 👇 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 Would you like to get a Saturday morning email once a month to read with your coffee giving you insider tips on events, news, and an in-depth perspective on a winery? Take about 6.7 seconds to sign up for my weekly newsletter. Link in Bio 🥂 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷
