About this site

Hello, my name is Jason Weaver, a wine enthusiast from College Station, Texas. I fell in love with Pinot Noir 2 years ago after my first bottle of Burgundy and have been fascinated ever since. This site began in June of 2008 as a project assignment for a web design class that eventually turned into a way to document my experiences exploring pinot noir.

The combination of working at a wine bistro - with over 400 wines on the list from every major wine region in the world - and begining a career in web design has taken the website to new levels of random chaotic rants and slivers of brilliant subjective opinion.

The goal is to create a unique perspective on bottles I drink and hopefully connect with fellow enthusiasts. You will see words from me here but occasionally my friends write cool stuff too.

Cheers and happy bottle hunting.
