It's a go! Plonk will be teaming up with Wine Styles
Big news from Atlanta, GA as Plonk has been chosen to be a part of the Wine Styles team. After 2 days of tasting with clients, management and a distributor, Plonk passed all tests and will soon be available in Georgia. The second set of great news is that we will be working with a wonderful wine distributor - Atlanta Wholesale Wine which is a part of the National Distributing Company team. This is a seasoned, professional business that is associated with two of my former employers - Block Distributing in Austin, Texas and Grand Vin in Denver, Colorado.I cannot express how pleased and honored I am to have been chosen to be a part of the Wine Styles/AWW and NDC team.Big thanks to Michelle Foust for being such a diligent buyer for Wine Styles and to Linda Blakely (aka Wine Diva) for the review on my blog that started the whole process!

Plonk is moving along with a little help from Social Media
I recently got a call from Michelle Foust who is a manager for Wine Styles. She told me that she had read a review by Linda Blakely (aka The Wine Diva) and was interested in trying Plonk and possibly bringing it in to her store. All I could think was WOW! How lucky am I!Michelle seems very passionate about finding unique wines and offering them to her clients. She told me a story about spending several months tracking down a particular wine maker from Italy. She eventually found him and is now carrying his wine. Her clients can be proud of the work that she does for them. Here's a list of upcoming events at her storeAnyway, I sent the wine and they will be tasting it today. Hope all goes well and that we will soon be in the Atlanta market.Also, Michelle made me realize that I needed to get our site up so......... here it is:Thanks Michelle and Thanks to Wine Styles

It's official, Plonk wine will be in Yellowstone NP this summer!
It's Official! I got a call this morning from the director of F&B in Yellowstone and they will be putting together a purchase order for Plonk. This is HUGE! Yellowstone is not only beautiful, they have over 3 million visitors every summer and a large percentage of those eat in one of their many wonderful restaurants. They take pride in their wine list and I am humbled that they will be including Plonk.Time to open some bubbly!CheersMW
