"In an effort to learn more about wine as I take over wine tastings at my office, I have picked up this extensive guide to try and learn more about wine as someone who doesn't drink it very often. Excited to learn more and chart my progress as I work my way through this." — Jun 10, 2025 07:30AM

“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
― Frank Herbert, Dune
