Success at the Cardiff 101 Mixer
Success at the mid-week gathering of the Cardiff 101 Mainstreet Association Mixer. Three wines were tasted with commentary from KutaSomm, including the fantastic 2017 Mazévo Rose from the Encinitas-based wine operation Mazévo. Check out their wines at Seaside Market, The Roxy, and other locations in the North County Coastal area. Mazévo rocks!

Success at the 2019 Cardiff Greek Festival
Fun was had by all at the 2019 Cardiff Greek Festival–especially if you stopped by the wine tasting tent and ran into me pouring 7 different Greek wines. I made some new friends, hung out with some old friends, and even met a stuffed donkey in the photo booth.
