January’s #WineStudio detailing the wine world’s myriad credentials was an incredibly popular discussion. We’d like to take it a bit further and discuss our own Stories of Wine. Specifically, how did we get here, where are we going and by what means. We’d like to hear from everyone! We think it’ll be a true telling of our wine journeys. And with it being February – the month of Love – we’ll even allow the word “passion” to slip in the conversation.
