Tenacious D - To Be the BEST!

A quick-hit today (while I’m traveling) to let you know about a new gig: I’ve contributed a profile piece on Napa Valley cult classic Realm Cellars (yes, that Realm, the one who makes reds going for about $1,300 a bottle) for BestWineries.com, an outlet local to the SF Bay-area wine scene.

And I will freely admit that I cannot read the title Best Wineries without thinking of Val Kilmer’s best-ever acting performance

Anyway, BestWineries.com has been adding profiles on cult California producers, and (presumably because the wine world is tiny and I kind of know almost everybody at this point) tapped me on the shoulder to help them build up that portion of their growing portfolio.

You can check it out at https://bestwineries.com/realm-cellars-on-the-silverado-trail-in-napa-valley/. No comments since it’s a profile piece, so unfortunately you won’t be able to heckle me over there.

Next week, it’s back to our regularly scheduled programming.

Cheers!
