Back to Bakas

Hi.  Thanks for taking a moment to stop by.  Feel free to make yourself at home and peruse the cornucopia of wine and food information.  Check out branding information by visiting justbrand.me

During the day I’m the Director of Social Media for St. Supéry winery in Napa Valley and a Certified Sommelier from the Court of Master Sommeliers.  At night I’m obsessed with finding the perfect wine and food pairing.  This blog is a place where I share success stories and not-so-successful stories while on this quest.
