It’s funny how things work out sometimes. What started over 4 years back as one man’s hobby to post audio wine tasting notes has grown into one of the four, “Best Wine Business/Industry” blogs for this years American Wine Blog Awards.

I’m honored — and very surprised — to the in the company of some of my favorite wine blogs including Mike Duffy’s Winery Website Report, Steve Bachmann’s The Wine Collector and the folks at Inertia Beverage Group. A big ‘thanks’ goes out to Michael Wangbickler who nominated this blog and to the judges for selecting it as a finalist.

The timing is interesting since I’ve decided to focus my posts here on the podcast (which will return to regular weekly form shortly), wine reviews and random musings about wine and Web 2.0 (a.k.a. “Wine 2.0“). So this will be the first and only time I expect to be nominated in this category. But it doesn’t mean I will not continue to blog about wine business subjects. They will be posted over on my company blog.

So if you liked my business posts here last year, head on over to FERMENTATION to cast your vote. You have until March 4th.

Cheers!
