    Josh,

    I've been a fan of your blog for a long time. It would be great if you post this. You should meet the sommelier, his name is Thomas. We should meet up for a meal or wine some time.

    Cheers,

    Dan

    Cool. Will post and check out Vinestock.

    Yes, a meal and wine sometime would be great. I think you know a mate of mine Michael Benzinger from the adoptees network. Send me an email privately and we'll organize something with the three of us.
