This is a blog about wine by people who are not wine experts or professionals. I’ve been watching Gary Vaynerchuk at http://tv.winelibrary.com for a year now and I went to hear him speak last night. He inspired me a little bit to take what I love to do (drink wine) and turn it into a outlet for creation of content. I don’t own a video camera (yet) and I’m not a good writer, but I’m going to give it a shot.
What’s the niche? The niche is that I’m going to try to gather some folks together who love wine, but are not wine professionals and have them write about the wine they drink. I drink a lot of wine these days, and I can feel my palate changing on almost a daily basis. Documenting that palate change as I try new wines and new grape variatals seems like a topic worthy of writing about.
At the moment, this blog is just me, but I have a few people in mind who I hope to get to help out. If you would like to join the list of wine amateurs exploring their palates, please leave a comment or send me some email. I’m planning on following the @garyvee model and answering every email and comment that I get, so don’t be shy! My first actual wine-related post is coming soon (like tonight)!
