Hello, Wine Idealists!
This week’s /NEW/ Edition of The Wine Idealist will also be the /FINAL/ edition for 2015…
I have taken a bit of a different tact with this final post than in year’s past. I’ve written a small poem for you all. I hope you enjoy reading it…

I want to take this moment to thank everyone who’s engaged with The Wine Idealist in 2015. Especially, New Zealand Wine and all the New Zealand winegrowers who invited me over and hosted me in their incredibly beautiful country, back in April and May this year. It was an absolute privilege to visit and see all of your sustainability efforts first hand!
I would also like to thank the team from The Adelaide Advertiser Hot 100 S.A., especially Banjo Harris-Plane for extending the invite out to me to participate in the judging of South Australia’s hottest 100 wines. It was an awesome experience to be a part of such a progressive Australian wine show… Results have just been announced – GO HERE to find out!
Thank you to all the winegrowers, vignerons, winemakers, and anyone else who has taken the time to speak with me, show me around, or send through a couple of quotes, every now and then, so that I am able to write about what it is that you all do and love…
And, THANK YOU for reading my words on wine each and every week!

Seasons’s Greetings, Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year!
Roll on wine idealism in 2016…
