I am sorry to report that our entire poetry contest was hijacked by Hardy a.k.a Dirty South Wine. He came in wearing his Nacho Libre mask and wiped our hard drives clean. All that was left was some Gamay tasting notes and pictures from our 1982 harvest party. Luckily we were able to snap the below photo after he brazenly removed his mask to show us his incisors. The appropriate authorities have been notified, but unfortunately all poems were lost and we are forced to cancel the contest. APRIL FOOLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In all seriousness, we will be posting the winners tomorrow, April 2nd, so as not to be confused with anything foolish. As far as Hardy goes, let me introduce you to Mr. Dirty South Wine (www.dirtysouthwine.com). Hardy writes a killer and fun blog, and I had a very provocative and pleasurable conversation with him while I was in ATL for the High Museum auction and festivities. First off, Hardy is a very nice guy who is a blast to hang with. He has an adventurous sense of humor and a passion for wine, and all that shows up in his posts. We spoke of history and sustainability, and he tolerated just enough of my babble that the interview might be survivable to watch. And it was on video. Yikes. Stay tuned for the poetry results!
