Staff & Guests
I have been pursuing my passion for wine for more than 25 years. I have had the good fortune of having numerous mentors to show me the way, as well as a wonderful wife who encourages me and shares my interest. After a couple of decades of learning about wine, attending events, visiting wineries and vineyards, and tasting as much wine as I possibly could, I had the amazing luck to meet Eve Bushman. Now, as Contributing Editor for Eve’s Wine 101, I do my best to bring as much information as possible about wine to Eve’s Wine 101 faithful readers.
As Vice President of Eve’s Wine 101 Consulting, every document released to the press, every photograph and every weekly newsletter of ours and those we write on behalf of our clients is either written and/or edited by me. There will always be two of us scrutinizing our work, before our clients even see it. Eve and I are in constant communication, not only to discuss how to help our clients, but also to examine every new marketing tool available to us.

Eve do you accept samples? If so, where do I send?
