This was a grand moment to spend with my father in the mid to late 1990's, the visit California's wine country, doing two visits a day, one in the morning, one in the afternoon, and also to show my father that I knew something about wine, though I bet he already knew that, right Dad?!? Thanks for driving us everywhere and letting me focus completely on this trip and making the very most of it for the two of us.
We had great receptions, everywhere was stellar except for JOSEPH PHELPS Vineyard where Less Sunderland of DOPS Imports way back when dropped the ball completely and so my father and I went on the wine tour that everyone goes on, which was fine, except that I am in the business and sell daily these wines like PHELPS and so, perhaps a bit more attention to us would have gone a very long way.
Oh well, the wines of JOSEPH PHELPS are indeed excellent and I have sold them for years, off-and-on, depending on what was offered to me ... cheers, Happy Sunday, August 24th, 2014 ... and enjoy these pictures, some of them, that I took. Seems like a lifetime ago ... Anthony ( TONY ) Quinn
