My name is Chris, I fell into the Temecula Valley wine region and stayed for 10 years due to the people, wine and the great experiences that occur when those things come together. Hardly anyone in my family drinks so I’m often amazed how I ended up here. My aim here is to write as entertaining, authentic and truthful about the world of wine as I can and promote the Temecula Valley wine region. Below are some tests and exams I took about wine that might lend some credibility about anything I’ll talk about on this site.
