Garagiste Wine is not your typical wine site. Yes, it has the website, but it really only serves as the place where you can sign up for their email offers. And it is in those emails where all the action happens - all the great offers, the phenomenal writing, the never before heard of boutique wines at incredible prices. There are few emails I enjoy getting more than the stories and offers I get from Garagiste. If you have any interest in great story telling, experimenting with your wine or getting a great deal, then Gargiste is for you.
Sometimes I amaze myself with how late to the show I can be. Take, for example, that I am user #80,911 on CellarTracker. But, better late than never on that one, I guess (as I use it all the time). Now, I have finally added a way to subscribe to this blog via email. Again, late to the game, but, it's here now, so sign up if you'd like to get posts delivered to you as I go. You can find the sign-up box in the right navigation.
It is amazing to me how much activity there is in the online wine world - bloggers, wine communities, wine sites, winery sites...and Twitter, the online phenomenon where everyone with a thought can share it with others who may or may not care. If you do care, follow me on Twitter and let's start up a discussion about wine.
Part of the fun of blogging for me is to follow other bloggers through their adventures, discoveries, travels and, most of all, tastings. Robert Dwyer of the Wellesley Wine Press is one of those I follow regularly. He is a great writer, really knows his stuff when it comes to wine and covers a broad spectrum of topics in the wine world. He and I will be coming together for a joint tasting and guest posting at the end of April right here on RJ's Wine Blog.
Wow, I am flattered that you picked my humble wine blog to highlight. I really appreciate it- especially the context you put around why you like what I'm doing. I'll look forward to future wine blogs of the month suggestions from you and I'll add them to my feed reader for sure.
I'm a big fan of what you're doing here too. I think you've got a wealth of knowledge to share about wine and wineries that are frequently on my list to learn more about. Looking forward to our cross posting coming later this month.
Cheers!
no problem. i really like what you're doing as well. and, it's fun to be able to highlight other blogs - we're all in this together.
looking forward to our cross - posting in a few weeks.
