Starting with going to the airport at 9am and flying to San Diego via Salt Lake City and arriving to shop for some appetizers for that evening&#8217;s tasting, it was hectic. But ultimately, it was a lot of fun meeting new people and tasting some wines that I&#8217;ve never had [...]]]></description>
