Welcome to Wine Cuentista!

Expect to see more purple teeth, questionable content and tipsy ramblings from this guy right here.

For those of you who know me on a personal level, you’ll know that I’ve been putting off re-releasing winecuentista.com for far too long; a combination of questionable priorities, Diploma studies and a certain amount of not wanting to bash my head against something I clearly don’t understand (building websites). Which is all a bit silly, really, because I very much enjoy writing and there’s nothing I enjoy writing about more than wine! I mean, the name Wine Cuentista literally translates to “Wine Story-teller” (or “Wine Bullshitter”, an originally unforeseen, colloquial meaning that I actually think is quite funny), so you’d think my priority would have been to get this up and running as soon as possible. Anyway, I didn’t and yet now here we are, with a hopefully functional website that I can now tap away at to my hearts content.

The idea of the blog is really to talk away about all things wine. I live in Barcelona, Spain, so there’s likely to be quite a strong inclination in that direction but at the same time I’m in the middle of my WSET Diploma studies, which is an international qualification, so I certainly won’t be limiting my ramblings to all things Iberian. For the first few weeks I will probably lift some older articles, polish them up and a bit and post them here, as it would be a shame to lose them, then continue with the journey afresh. I understand that blogs are supposed to have some sort of commercial purpose but I struggle to think what I would want that to be. Honestly, I just want to keep learning about wine, sharing and talking about it and moving on with my studies by finishing the Diploma, then looking ahead to my grand ambition; the Master of Wine program.

So, welcome! I will be making this blog a priority and hope to update it at least a couple of times a week. I really hope you enjoy the content and I look forward to sharing the next steps of my journey with you.
