Graduate of Wine School

April, 2011 - Graduated from The Windows of the World Wine School (formally at the World Trade Center) in NYC. It was a rough 6 weeks, swirling, sipping, tasting, and smelling wine! But I got through it and even delighted the class of 100 students with an Askinosie 70% from Mexico that paired well with a Vintage Porto. Cheers! http://www.kevinzraly.com
