2nd Year Honor! Bohemian Best Sommelier of the North Bay

I was very surprised last year to be honored with the title Best Sommelier of the North Bay 2014 by Bohemian Magazine.  I am even more so now, having the same honor bestowed upon me for a second time in 2015, after branching out on my own, unaware so many people are still appreciative of my contribution.

NBB2015_BestOfNorthBayLogoColorTHANK YOU to everyone that voted for me!  Your support has made the transition to private consulting so amazing and enjoyable.

Cheers!  Christopher
