Human memory is anything but perfect. In fact it is one of the most fallible of human organs there is. In hindsight we clear out memories we do not like any more. We add and subtract from it, we construct stories which never happened in the first place; we make sense where there was none before. Our memory seems to possess an independent creativity that bears only a passing resemblance to actual events.
That’s why wine geeks keep tasting notes, isn’t it? But even if we do, aren’t we…

Riesling the queen of white wine

As you might…

I am very excited. Recently, I was invited to the above event. From November 14 to 16, 2011 the Rajamangala University of Technology Lanna (RMUTL) in Chiang Mai, Thailand will host the 3rd International Symposium on Tropical Wine.

Our company is opening channels into China for exporting wine. We are able to tap an unique market for distribution but also delving into the regular market. High volume is mandatory, but we have an order for a smaller exploratory shipment. If you have a slate of bottles that you think would work well, please contact me if your wineries want to take part. Looking for low end and high end bottles. State-side or abroad. I would be happy to answer any questions via…
Hello!
My company is based out of California and specializes in exporting and distributing wine to China.

Yes, the wines are available in Vic. Vintage Cellars and First Choice Stores have access to 3 of the wines and various Restaurants have our wines listed. Berth Restaurant at Southbank is one such Restaurant. I can have Angie (our Vic Rep) contact you to drop off some wines if you'd like!

I have only recently joined the openwineconsortium.
In my site www.winetourismspain.com we have a wine Photo Atlas that contains nearly 400 pictures. We have put together this section with the contribution from many participants to our 1st wine photo contest.
I contact you because I know sometimes it is difficult to find pictures for some posts. In case you would like to use any of the photos from our photo Atlas please feel free to do so. I hope this will help you and that you will enjoy the photos… and we would be very greatful if you mention our site.
Thank you
Luis
I haven't tried them. I'll look around for them.
Thanks for the tip!

Thanks for the positive reply. I really appreciated that!
The beautiful thing about "wine lovers" (like ourselves) is that most of the time we can find ways to help each other. If you take a look at www.thewinehub.com you will see that we have a vast range of opportunities for that...
Do you have a wine-related subject in mind that you want to write about? You can take a look at the blogs that were already posted to hav an idea of what is going on...
By the way, I'll need your e-mail address in order to send you the instructions on how to get started.
Please let me know your thoughts.
Best,
LA
