At Lake Park Bistro (WI) last year.
Dear Friends,
Before the vine wake up from this winter (which has just started here BTW), I will be traveling for my yearly US pilgrimage. Due to lack of time and the need to visit where we already have distribution, I will keep the same itinerary with a new stop in Boston.
I hope to meet you during this trip. We have some very exciting new releases to pour you.
Here is my whole itinerary. This page will be updated as the events (wine tasting, wine dinner) are definitely set. If you plan to attend one of them, which I do hope, please sign up to the contact indicated... Last year, we have been sold out many times and I would hate to see you at the door without a seat !

I live in Seattle and would be very happy to meet you and try your wines! I've been reading your wife's blog for a long time, and I am familiar with many of the tasting places / wine shops in Seattle, if you would like me to provide some contacts for you.
I also assist with the marketing at West Seattle Wine Cellars, so I will email them and suggest they get in touch with you too! :-)
Bonne chance,
Relaena

Jean-Marc,
Carol and I are sorry to miss you in Portland this year - we will be in DC with grandchildren. Welcome back to the west coast. Please say hello to Kristin, Jean-Claude and Marie-Francoise. Our trip to France will likely happen latter this year - early September, but we have not as yet decided on the details. Meanwhile, may you have a successful trip.
Sincerely yours,
Glen and Carol Rea

Just want to let any fellow Seattle-ites know... Vino Verité Wine Shop up on Capitol Hill will be hosting a tasting for Jean-Marc this Saturday March 24, at 3pm. Please note: because there are no local distribution agreements for this wine, it is only available for tasting, not for purchase. But Dave is working on that too... fingers crossed! Hope to see you all there. Shop details: http://www.vinoverite.com (the tasting page hasn't been updated in a while, but never fear, Jean-Marc *will* be there this Saturday). :-)

On the 20th will you only be in Orange County? Or will you also come to Los Angeles?
Posted by: Jacqui Barcos | March 19, 2012 at 08:21 PM
Hey, Carmel by the Sea is halfway between Orange County and Oakland. Would love to have you stop here, we have 7 tasting rooms! Kathy Bang
Posted by: Kathy | March 19, 2012 at 11:06 PM
Dear Seattle -WA friends
I am very sorry but there is no tasting in Seattle 03/24
The meeting at Vino Verite is just a professional one and I don't have enough samples for pouring
Hopefully if we have an importer next year, we can set this
Thanks for your comprehension

So sad you couldn't make it to Seattle.

Leaving the old 2012 tour calendar ("on the road again") on your web page, unlabeled, is confusing. I'd recommend taking it down.

At the end of the day, packaging up your rope is as simple as folding up your tarp and stuffing it into your bag
