Hello, my name is John.
I started drinking wine over 25 years ago. In college, I was the typical beer drinker, drinking beer, half the time, not for the taste. I joined the high-tech work force out of college and I found myself drinking less and less beer, and more and more wine at business lunches and events, and with friends.
I started to realize how intriguing wine is, starting to desire whites, then reds, the whites, then reds, then sparkling and champagne, and back and forth I went. Next I found myself taking classes and participating in further education, reading books, articles, brochures, whatever had wine related text, and eventually the sommelier courses.
With 10,000+ varietals, in over 80 countries, and with new wine-making techniques introduced as fast as you can read, for me, a “techy”, there is no way to keep up.
This is why I started TheWineScrolls.Com. To share, educate, discuss, critique, and just have friendly conversation. From my experiences, your experiences, and followers, we all will continue to help enhance and populate this forum with more and more wine related information and dialogue.
My philosophy is simple; everyone has their own likes, palate, and experiences. There is no right or wrong with wine (except when it is corked or spoiled). There should be no such things as wine snobs, and no question is stupid.
In this stressful, fast-paced life, wine is something from the Earth that forces you to slow down, and enjoy your time on this planet.
Let’s have fun. Take care my follow wine likers, lovers, and connoisseurs.
John
