I want to thank you for being my companion on this journey. I appreciate all the support you have shown me with your “Likes”, “Hits” and “Comments” that have served as a steady stream of encouragement for me. The purpose of this blog has never been to reach the masses and have millions of followers by providing a broad overview of the entire wine universe. Nor was it ever intended to delve into the hyper-focused classic fine wine scene. This blog was started to give you insight into the community of wine producers on the East Coast. None of this could have been possible without the cooperation of the wine makers who generously donated their time and knowledge to supply me with content that I couldn’t have gotten anywhere else.

     I cherish the new friendships I have made and the old friendships that have strengthen because of this blog while always looking forward to friends I have yet to meet. There are times when I feel like an explorer sending reports from a distant frontier into the abyss not knowing where they are going or even if they will be viewed at all. I am grateful to know that you are out there, whether your close to my home or in some far-flung corner of the world, listening and responding. I will continue to do my best to give you a peek inside the wineries and report newsworthy events as they develop throughout the coming year.

     Wishing you and your family a Happy & Healthy New Year.
