Just wanted to let you all know that there's a new blog out there that is a must-read for me, and certainly
it will become that for you too. The team at Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant, our US importer, has just started a blog, called Inspiring Thirst, named after Kermit's most recent book. This is a blog that you won't want to miss! For me it's a wonderful reminder of my 3 years working in the store and of our many, many tastings at the store after hours. Each time a new container of wine arrived from France Kermit would have the warehouse bring up a bottle of each wine that had just arrived, from an everyday Vin de Table all the way up the ladder to Grand Cru Raveneau. It was a such an amazing education and a time in my life that I will always remember fondly. Now you too can have a glimpse of this very unique place in the world of wine, there's no other store in the world like it.
If my assumptions are correct the man behind the creation of the blog and most of its posts is Clark Terry, a dedicated wine blog reader, but as you can imagine, nothing happens in Berkeley without the approval of Kermit himself! I'm hoping that even he will write a post from time to time! Hope you enjoy it as much as I am, those guys definitely know how to Inspire Thirst!
Thanks for the great plug Amy!
