@Geturgrapeon thank you for sharing your life’s story! I can’t remember reading a book which made me cry and inspired me this much. Your work environment at Cote should be the standard. I’m thankful to be working at one that seems to have those standards. Now on to drink pink 😋

Gia Coppola loves Vans, Vegas, her grandfather Francis Ford Coppola’s vineyard, and @Geturgrapeon's WINE GIRL: "I loved reading about James’s personal journey, working her way up to becoming one of the top female sommeliers." 🍷📕

That time in New York 6 years ago when I took Victoria James to the closing of The Magic Shop Studio (one mad party) and introduced her to Grammy winner Warren Russell Smith a very old friend of mine, by the biggest mixing desk ever.
Just found this on my iphone @Geturgrapeon
