Adventures in Wine
Where did you grow up?
Winnetka, Illinois
What was the first time you remember drinking wine?
At Yale, at Adulis Restaurant in New Haven, Connecticut, with my best friend Emily and her mom.
When did you start to like wine?
The first time I remember tasting it! I became somewhat interested in wine when I spent a summer after my sophomore year in college in South Africa and visited the Western Cape Province. Then, when I studied abroad in The Netherlands, I gained more exposure/familiarity to European wine, developing a love for Provencal roses after enjoying them on my favorite cousin's boat in Amsterdam. Thereafter, throughout my 20's, I became a much more of a passionate wine enthusiast, passion that was enhanced by travels to wine regions in New Zealand, Austrailia, Napa, Oregon, Washington, Bordeaux, Burgundy, Tuscany, Alsace, etc etc etc.
