I love to teach customers and friends about wine. It is my goal to teach in terms that are understandable and not pretentious in any way. I am a t-shirt and jeans type of guy and this world of wine can be very intimidating to normal folks. That's why I feel that people just stick to things that they are familiar, or with what their parents drank. I am always here to guide customers in the direction of their palate. The wine world is huge and should be explored past the Mogen Davids or White Zins of the world. I have done this for a long time and have a great record of matching people to a certain wines. It is a progression from sweeter to dryer in baby steps. If you would like to learn about wine in normal everyday terms we have a wine tasting every month at a different location and we sit around and talk about everything including which wines we love and some we don't. If you would like to join us feel free to drop me a line. You can follow me on Twitter at tmaxxx90, or facebook at Tim Miles.
Until next time, Drink more wine.

A day in the life of a wine seller... In a tough economy...
As a wine seller in a tough economy I am really trying to keep a positive attitude. This may be called therapy for me so here we go. How much longer do I have to endure this price not quality driven society that we live in today. I constantly try to teach and show the differences in products and quality, but it seems that my words and experience fall upon deaf ears when the difference is a mear dollar or two. I feel that I am constantly saying the same words over and over again in my head. (what have I done wrong, do I really know what I'm talking about) I really do know my craft. I have been selling wine and liquor for almost 10 years now, so I must have done something rite. So enough negativity lets be positive and with persistence and hope we will survive this time of crisis. Until next time, drink more wine.
