I am a former career firefighter and an enthusiastic wine lover. I caught the bug about 10 years ago and haven’t put a bottle down since! I work for my family business and have an incredible wife and 4 kids. Although they don’t share my healthy obsession for wine, they understand why I am so passionate about it.
So why do I write about wine? I started seriously writing about wine in 2011 under the previous blog Midwest Wine Guy. That labor of love was created out of a desire to share real wines to real people. Uh, what? I know, it sounds simple. I had visited dozens of wine blogs and web sites over the years and found most of them to be pretentious, uninformed, unappealing or just trying to sell you something. So I decided to write about all wines – from $9 grocery store pick-ups to the $250 bottle of limited Napa Cabernet. Everyone has a different budget and a unique pallet, so that’s what I focused on and that’s what I am focusing on here at Drink The Bottle.
I’m here to share with you a wide variety of delicious wines that you can drink with or without food, and with or without a friend! Thanks for visiting. I hope you will be a regular around here as we enjoy the world of wine together. -Jeff Lawson
