It’s great to see client Michel-Schlumberger recognized in the Best Winery Blog category. When we started to work together last July, we brainstormed the concept of having most of the winery staff blog. I’m not sure why it took until 2008 for such a format to be tried but you can’t argue with their success and commitment to interesting posts on nearly a daily basis.

I was also surprised that my wine blog and podcast, Winecast, was nominated in the Best Business/Industry Wine Blog category. Although I do blog about the wine business there from time-to-time, I wouldn’t consider it a wine industry blog (that’s what I hope to develop here this year). But it’s an honor to be a finalist.

Voting is open from now until March 4th. I would expect to be posting the final results about this time next week.

Congratulations to all the finalists.
