Summer's here and so are the Wines!
Summer's here and so are the Wines! The 4th of July has come and past. I would normally write something here about how amazing all these wines to follow are, but it just doesn't feel right to project the same persona when we're in the situation we're in. The sun is warm, the air is humid, the tomatoes are growing like weeds. But this isn't like any summer before it. We've been dealing with the corona virus for going on 5 months now and while we've all evolved through many stages of processing it.... but the reality of the virus... Continue reading

We Commissioned Art to Help Restaurant Workers...it's for sale!
We Commissioned Art to Help Restaurant Workers...it's for sale! The first week of the pandemic and shut down were a chaotic scramble to figure out how to respond. I am very fortunate that my business is not customer facing. I had hard decisions to make but nothing like what many businesses I supply wine had to deal with. I was looking for anyway I could help people who were hurting more than me and a friend on social media suggested buying art to support artists and the arts community that is such an important part of Maine and Portland. So... Continue reading

Virtual Wine Tasting Friday with Absentee Winery
Virtual Wine Tasting Friday with Absentee Winery The most exciting CA winery I've found in....a long time Absentee is the most exciting and important winery I've picked up in the last 12 months. When was the last time I wrote an email like this about a California winery?! California occupies a huge place in the worlds cultural consciousness. Say California to someone and they immediately think of wide open spaces, rebels without causes, confidant people doing things their own way, Hollywood and wine country. Reality though is that the vast majority of CA wine is made industrially by guys in... Continue reading

Stories from my Crazy Wine Trip to Chile
Stories from my Crazy Wine Trip to Chile Wine Making in Southern Chile is Insane 2 weeks ago I was pressing grapes in southern Chile And I was doing it by hand over a bamboo mat! Earlier this month I went to rural southern Chile to seek out a metaphorical legendary lost city of wine making. It was crazy on it's own, but now in the perspective of the pandemic and shut down of normal life it seems even more surreal! In a normal world I would have come back and hosted all kinds of events to share what I... Continue reading

Ned's Going to Central Chile! Not just Chile: Bio Bio and Itata valleys! Look out for a lot of exciting videos, Blog Posts, and Social Media No, I'm not just telling you about Chile to make you Jealous I'm flying to Chile next Wednesday the 4th of March to visit Itata and Bio Bio. These are valleys down around Concepcion in central Chile, about 350 miles south of the capital Santiago. I speak no Spanish and have maybe 1/4 of a plan at this point.
