Thank you Josh Chan @RidgeVineyards for an amazing tour of Monte Bello! The more I learn about the legacy and the beautiful wines of RIDGE, the more my admiration grows. I’m glad I have more than one bottle of 2013 Monte Bello at home to savor in the years to come! #wine

So wonderful to judge for @DecanterAwards this year across Burgundy, Asia, and US panels. The chance to witness the rising quality of wines from Ningxia and Inner Mongolia in China, to the diversity within the Maconnais in Burgundy, made for a memorable experience. 🍷

Rehearsal with Patrick Okubo MS on clarinet and Michel Emerick on viola for our performance of Mozart’s Kegelstatt Trio tomorrow! I love the intimacy of playing chamber music. Breathing together and harmonizing with fellow musicians is such a privilege. #rehearsal #music

Reflecting on my anniversary as a Master of Wine, I feel deep gratitude. I still can’t believe I survived the exams and RP, but the effort was worth every bit of growth and friendships made. Whatever your path, cheers to the journey! 🥂 #MasterOfWine #Gratitude @mastersofwine
