Dear Readers:

I’m still on the road, but wanted to share some images from the SIP! Classic 2018 wine competition I helped judge in McMinnville, OR. on January 20th, 2018.

This highly popular food and wine extravaganza takes place April 9,10, & 11th at Evergreen Aviation and Space Museum.

Personal fave: The once-in-a-lifetime after-party at Joel Palmer House in Dayton. Hosts Chris and Mary Czarnecki opened their kitchen, cellar and hearts to SIP! Classic wine competition judges and volunteers with staggering generosity of spirit. Much mushrooms and Oregon pinots served, and even more memories made.

So honored to participate!
