Good Grape Wine Company. On Self-Actualizing Wine Interest, Purple Pages, the Kindle Fire and Gutenberg. While it has been cited that we’re living in a “Golden Age”. Of wine writing, what is interesting to me these days is NOT the subject of wine writing. Something much bigger and amorphous is at work. In diamond-cutting terms, it’s more Peruzzi than table cut. And it seems we’re all on a journey to be the most interesting. Person in the world. This is a very subtle point and I hope I’m conveying i...

http://www.winemakernotesblog.com/2014/11/pirate-wines-are-better-than-natural-wines.html
Notes from the winemaker. Occasional wine-geeky and wine-wonky postings from some guy making the stuff in the Sonoma Valley. I also write about other things that interest me.
