Hi Derek, as always... thank you so much for keeping in touch. Look forward to seeing you soon. Say hi to Ana for me.

All the best!

Hey Marco,

What a great authentic clip. It gave me a chance to get to know your personality better and I learned quite a few things about your operation in a short amount of time. Well done!

I just received my prize from your first Where in the World is Travessia contest- I'm looking very forward to trying the Vidal Blanc soon. Thanks again.

Best regards,
Bob

Hi Robert, thank you so much for stopping by the blog and leaving the comment. Also, still amazed that you added my Vidal Blanc to Cellar Tracker... hopefully a first of many more to come.

Best wishes,
Marco

Marco-
I really understand how you feel. As a winemaker here in Napa I often question if one of my wines is really that good. Most often we are over critical of ourselves. As winemakers, we want perfection and in reality thats never going to happen. Relax, enjoy yourself and people will feed off your excitment for the wines. Good Luck!

Ted,
Thank you so much for leaving a comment... I certainly understand and agree with it. Indeed, there will never be perfection in our lives as winemakers. In the end for me, after all the tasting and analysis, I made a decision based on a gut feeling that I have which tells me that I should not release this wine.

God luck with your project also... great looking website, I will be back to visit it again.

All the best,
Marco

I agree with you... when in doubt... don't put it out.

Oops... pressed the Post button too soon.

Great 2nd video blog, one can see you took all the feedback from the 1st one.

Congratulations on your 1st retail store selling your wine. You must be really excited about that.

Nuno,

Yes, I'm very excited about selling Travessia at Bin Ends. As for the video... the more I do it the easier it will become. I've got another one planned and I think that it's going to be the best one yet.

All the best,
Marco
