It started back in the mid 90's when Stu worked in the music business, with his first trip to Northern California. At a business lunch, on a suggestion from a prospective client, he tried Cabernet Sauvignon for the first time, and liked it. Stu's thirst for wine knowledge, and his wine journey started in that moment, and it has taken him to most of the wine producing countries in the years that followed.

Around the beginning of the millennium, he traded the music business in for the wine and spirits business, and began studying the origins of both. Stu tasted wine and spirits every where he traveled to all over the world, to hone his palate.

October of 2009, he launched his radio talk show, "Wine Talk", with the intent of discussing his travels world wide and the wine industry at large. Inside of the first three months of broadcasting, the show went from a national to an international show. Emails came in from listeners globally, while the show was airing live, and then tweets, it became a featured show on the Blogtalkradio Network.

Stu went on TV shows to promote the radio show. He was able to secure high profile guests from every walk of the wine world, and celebrities who enjoyed wine, or had a line of wines on the market.

Over the years, he has built a loyal legion of fans and listeners globally.
