Last night, over a glass of Shiraz, it came to me... why not share with the world my never ending quest to understand the intricacies of the God's juice... wine?
I have been attempting, rather poorly, to expand my vino-vocabulary over the past few years. I admire those who can, often blindfolded, distinguish between the floral notes of a Chianti & the oaky tones of a Cab Sav. I want to be a wino of the greatest kind... a budget-conscious, twenty-something connoisseur of all things from the vine.
So for mostly selfish reasons, and for a good wine buzz of course, I will embark on a journey that hopefully will hone my grape-goddess skills; and somehow, along the way, help others who too are on a quest of their own.

I will use this blog to document my amateur opinions on the various wines that I get the pleasure of tasting and all the adventures my love of fermented grapes brings my way. I look forward to taking you on my journey down the bottle.
Bottoms up,
Nic
