MY LIGHT BULB MOMENT
I was wandering the hills of Germany's Rhine River valleys and discovered a love for this crisp beverage that went with so much of the food, that wasn't beer! I came back to the US and was hit again several years later by the most unassuming bottle of CA Merlot that knocked my socks off, and I wanted to know why. MEMBERSHIPS & AFFILIATIONS
