You can’t see the #sundaysunset when you’re looking east, but you do get a front-row seat to the moon as she ascends. Full moon tonight, stay tuned for more photos! . . . #miami #biscaynebay #wintersky #naturephotography #moon #brickell #brickellliving #gratitude #floridaliving #tropical #moonrise

Woo hoo! Just found out I passed the spirits unit of #wsetdiploma. Don’t know my grade yet but ecstatic to know I’ve ticked off another milestone in the journey. Really enjoyed the class but, man, it’s been a long 2+ months waiting for the results! Here are photos of some of my favorite discoveries. . . . #winestudent #winelover #internationalwinecenter #rye #armagnac #mezcal #wset #goals #chateaudelaubade #bombaysapphire #bulleit #zubrowkavodka #bisongrass

Here’s my #MondayMotivation: set realistic goals, develop plans to achieve them, and work like crazy every day to get there. The reward? A proper siesta among the fishing boats in southern Spain. Just like this fellow! What reminds you to stay focused and keep moving your feet? . . . #siesta #andalucia #spain #burrianabeach #nerja #workhardplayhard #beachnap #travelphotography #keepitsimple #goals

For this #SundaySunset I’m reaching back to one of my favorite trips: Nerja, Spain on the Mediterranean coast. Andalucía is a magical place where anything can happen. Has Spain cast a spell on you? . . . #andalucia #spain #encantadora #nerja #costadelsol #laplaya #travel #travelphotography #swirlingdervish

Bye bye, 2018! Gabe and I ushered in the new year by attending a small dinner party where we sipped Champagne and enjoyed lively conversation - until 3:00 a.m. We usually spend NYE at home but this was a delightful change of pace. Today we start a new adventure, taking with us the fond memories of 2018, and discarding the difficulties. Out with the old (including the party hats) and in with the new! My best wishes to all of you for a healthy, happy 2019 that exceeds your wildest expectations. Cheers! . . . #nye #2019 #party #auldlangsyne #happynewyear #joy #beyoung #carpediem #nyc #fifthavenue #friends

Okay, I finally figured out how to get my #topnine2018 IG posts! (Go to the App Store and download the Top Nine app.) My #1 was a repost but I have to admit - it’s probably my favorite too! The others are a mix of #wine and #Miami color, with a Spanish sunset thrown in for good measure. All in all, pretty accurate representation of my 2018. Happy New Year, everyone! . . . #winestagram #brickell #floridalife #wineblogger #topnine2018 #winefriends #southflorida #cabfranc #swirlingdervish #gogoldenbordeaux #bordeaux #pasorobleswine #ribollagialla #andalusia
