I meet so many people at Cleveland Park Wines & Spirits ( 3423 Connecticut Avenue N.W. Washington D.C. 20008 Tel:202-363-4265 sales@clevelandparkwine.com www.clevelandparkwine.com, anthony.quinn@clevelandparkwine.com, also on Facebook at : Cleveland Park Wines & Spirits and on Twitter at : cpwinespirits ) serendipitously : and I love it. I thrive on it, I eat it. It's some of my important nourishment. I never know what to expect and I love this, really I do. I know, I've already said it. But even thinking about it excites me as I will always be meeting and experiencing different things and this keeps me humble and alive and curious and always on top of my game.
I cannot remember exactly this experience but I have met one of the owners in the past and I believe that Jan worked for them as a national sales rep for them? I will have to look later at my notes and other pictures and maybe add them here to this one.
I am often just adding one picture at a time to at least start a blog entry on the many people that pass by me and that I hopefully gain a meaningful exchange? That's the idea : share with one another? I have come to really come to count and to rely on this. Hopefully we each take something away that creates some sort of bond between us which did not exist before?
I have sold the R.B. COHN California wines, especially the reds before and will have to remember who my local resp for the wines is? So many questions. Looking at these pictures that I take helps me to stay more current and up on all that is happening so quickly now before my eyes. It's all moving so quickly now and changing so fast as well. It's hard to keep up. Really almost impossible. That would frustrate some but for me it's what keeps it all so infinitely interesting and alive and exciting. No time to pause, no time to reflect too much : just keep up! Don't fall back! Keep moving Mr.! You'll be lost and forgotten if you don't! Not a threat, just a gentle warning. If you want to be in the wine business today ( or any business for that matter ) watch out and be aware and try and keep up as you will surely be left behind and scratching your head and pondering : " what just happened to me several times over ?!? " if you do not.
Keep up and enjoy and learn , taste and share and grow from the contacts, the meetings, the tastings, the lunches and all the things you help others plan. It's all so very much worth it.
I love the store wine retail business. It's been a wonderful art form and art expression for me all along.
If any of you have any R.B. COHN stories and suggestions and comments on the wines please share in the " comment " section at the end of this blog.
