Just as in the past 2 years, Alder Yarrow’s seminal Vinography wine blog has been named Best Drinks Blog at the 2006 Food Blog Awards.

Congratulations, Alder; well deserved in my view. Alder’s writing has been a consistent inspiration for my writing and podcasting. And he’s a great, humble guy, as well.

Speaking of wine blog awards, the nominations are still open for the American Wine Blog Awards at FERMENTATION. I’m honored to be nominated in multiple categories including Best Wine Podcast or VideoBlog, Best Wine Blog Writing and Best Wine Blog. Thanks to all for your support; I’ll keep you posted on when the voting for the finalists opens.
