Thank you for the link back to Eastside Business newspaper Sean. Our readers love to read about wine.
ReplyDeleteHave you ever been to the Overlake Service League's Le Vin à son Apogée (Wine at its Best)? I'm actually on their committee this year and hear from some in the wine industry that this is THE best wine event in the entire Pacific Northwest.
