Bloggerview #27: Jeremy Parzen

Bloggerview #27Who: Jeremy ParzenBlog: Do BianchiWhere: http://dobianchi.com/ You have to appreciate a guy who will reference Pliny, Walter Benjamin and Richard Pryor in one, single sentence. Jeremy Parzen, the author of Do Bianchi, strikes me as an internationalists, even though his blog tends to focus on the world of Italian wine and food. He and his blog first came to my attention when it was nominated by a number of folks in the American Wine Blog Awards. What I found…

Bloggerview #26: Michelle Lentz

Bloggerview #26Who: Michelle LentzBlog: My Wine EducationWhere: http://www.wine-girl.net/ Michelle Lentz and husband Kevin are the duo behind "My Wine Education", a wine blog I've watched, read and admired for some time now.

Bloggerview #24 Who: St. ViniBlog: The ZinquisitionWhere: http://zinquisition.blogspot.com/ If I had a nickel for every time someone has asked me who writes The Zinquisition, I'd have at least $2.00. For liberal arts majors, that's at least 40 times. Going by the St. Vini moniker, the author of the Zinquisition blog writes anonymously. And he has been blogging longer than nearly every other wine blogger out there, starting with his first post in July 2004. What's clear about St. Vini is…

Bloggerview #23: Amy Atwood

Bloggerview #23 Who: Amy AtwoodBlog: MyDailyWineWhere: http://www.mydailywine.com I met Amy at the first Wine Bloggers Conference last year and was immediately taken with her. This is a lovely woman with passions to spare, though it strikes me she'd give up none of them. Most important where her blog, MyDailyWine, is concerned is that she's got a deep well of knowledge on many fronts. She has worked in the wine industry since 1996 in a number of capacities, including sales, marketing…
