The "Chardonnay Queen" and I are heading for our little cottage by the sea, in Matlacha, FL, for a couple of weeks, so there will be no Norm's Tasting Notes for the next few weeks, but on our return I will post the results of our fishing, seafood, and wine events. Meanwhile, you can check out previous wine articles at the sites listed below.
NORM’S BIO

Raised in Columbus, Ga. by my mother's family whose roots go back to 1828 in the Columbus area.
Joined first wine club in Atlanta, GA at age 21.
Became engaged in the wine business in 1982.
Judged numerous times at the Atlanta International Wine Festival.
Have been owner or part owner of two wine shops in the Atlanta area.
Also Wine manager for the biggest wine store in Atlanta for several years.
I have conducted numerous private and public wine tastings, and have been writing a weekly column, "Norm's Tasting Notes", for about seven years.
