A glimpse into the wine world speaks volumes about a country’s history, culture, and tradition. For me, there is no better way to record those moments than with my own narrative.

For the past two and a half years, I had the privilege to live in Brno, Czechia, where the wine world was at my fingertips. Read up on my adventurous journey as an American expat living in South Moravia, Czechia.

I’ve also linked my ‘100 wine reviews’ on the Search Bar-these will redirect you to my Facebook page.

Recently, I have relocated to Tucson, Arizona, so stay tuned! I’ll be updating the site with more of my desert wine escapades and stories. Cheers!

Baláž Winery

Check out my latest video featuring Vinařství Baláž , a fourth generation, family run winery located in Dolní Dunajovice.

Today, I sampled their Riesling ‘Valticka’ 2018, Welschriesling ‘Pontic’ 2018, and their Pinot Noir ‘Tannowitz’ Barrique 2016.

Apologies in advance for my questionable Czech pronunciation towards the end. Still learning!

Sauvignon Blanc : South Moravian Style

Spring is here, and that means that it is white wine season. And although I had my initial trepidations about Sauvignon Blanc from South Moravia, I was pleasantly surprised by these two outstanding examples from Vinařství Václav in Hustopeče and Vinařství Sonberk in Popice.

Plus, an extra bonus wine (!!!) for all you fellow wine geeks out there!
