I have been into wine a very long time and this has always been one of my favourite blogs - because you have an almost novelistic way of conveying your thoughts about food and wine, which elevate it far beyond the often banal tasting notes and general hogwash that dominates most wine writing today. Thanks for everything and I hope you still post (even if infrequently) when you feel inspired - clearly you have many admirers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799854524070158890.post-68768880597397029492014-06-03T12:53:22.464-04:002014-06-03T12:53:22.464-04:00All the best, your blog is a terrific reference po...All the best, your blog is a terrific reference point.

You have a gift for writing, and I'm guessing you enjoy it when you feel you have the time to do it right, which leads me to believe this will be a hiatus rather than a farewell. <br /><br />Call that a prediction. Don't know where, don't know when, but we'll see you again, even if less frequently. Come back when you feel like it.
