This is Vika. She was a sommelier at Goodwine, our importer in Ukraine.
Her body was found today under the rubble of the destroyed building along with her husband and cat. Vika was 6 months pregnant.
Really a dark day 😢

This Field of Dreams game desperately needs Timothy Busfield stopping by the booth periodically to say he doesn’t see a goddamn thing and everyone is fucking crazy.

This is my brother, Glen. He's a veteran USFS firefighter working the #CaldorFire in California. His truck—and his crew—are damaged, but they're somehow still hanging on.

Steven Spurrier, International #wine Legend, dies At 79. One of the truly great wine people in history. I met him once, at an auction. A really decent guy, and a loss for the wine world #winetasting #winelover bit.ly/3elOfSf

The US$36,000 bottle of #wine that most of us winos never heard of. Now you have, read and weep. #winetasting #winedrinking #winelover #winemaking bit.ly/3dzoOfP

OK, you scored some #Wagyu beef for #NewYears. Can't just throw some #redwine against it. Need some careful thought and advice. Here it is. #wine #winetasting #winelover #winepairing

I almost never flog products, but I totally rely on Coravin when it's not possible or reasonable to enjoy an entire btl of #wine. It's a pricy thing, and these dudes are selling them for 1/2. Move quickly #winetasting #winedrinking #winelover bit.ly/33OaMkx

Author of one of #wine's most popular books decries the wine-scoring system. Well worth a read whether or not you like the 100 pt method. Personally I prefer it, done right. #winetasting #winelover bit.ly/3nf9NRY
