The general concept

Tonight's post will not discuss any particular wine. This is more of an introduction and "how it works" post.

How often will I post? Generally, I shall attempt to post once per week. Since I work for a living and have a personal life, I cannot commit to publish on a regular schedule. That said, however, I will try to publish a new wine review once per week, hopefully on Wednesday or Thursday night so that you have an opportunity to grab a new wine for the weekend.

What makes me qualified to review wine? Honestly, nothing. I have no training or experience in the wine industry. I make my living testing software, so I suppose that my passion for quality and comfort with a scientific approach to evaluating products makes me a good novice to evaluate wine.

What if a vintner wants me to review their wine? If a vintner wants me to review their wine, they will have to contact me to work out arrangements. My reviews will be unbiased, regardless of whether a vintner provides me with a sample to review or I review a wine of my own volition.

How can a vintner guarantee a good review? Make a great wine!

Will the readers know if a vintner has requested a review? Yes! I will disclose whether a particular wine was reviewed based on a vintner's request.
