Red prawns and linguini.

What wine are you pairing with this?

I tried Georges Mugneret-Gibourg for the first time two years ago.

Still think about these gems.

99-100 point wines from the 2023 Bordeaux vintage, per @jamessuckling

Château Canon
Château Margaux
Château Montrose
Château Pavie
Le Pin
Petrus

I might be in the minority on this one, but I do my best work first thing in the morning.

No breakfast required.

What wines are on your bucket list?

I’ll start: any ‘90s Henri Jayer

I'm starting a vegetable garden.

What should I grow?

Doubling your revenue and headcount is cool.

But do you know what’s really cool?

Doubling your revenue with the same headcount.

Fun fact: Tuscany had 5 of the 10 best-performing wines through March.

Do with that information what you will.

The worst DMs:

“Hi”
“Here’s my product pitch”
“I’d love to pick your brain”
“I’d like to add you to my professional network”

The best DMs:
👉 Specific
👉 Well-researched
👉 Have a small ask
👉 Solve a pressing need or problem

Honestly, a little flattery never hurts either

The first $1 million in assets under management is the hardest.

It took Vinovest:

▪️ 8 months to reach $1 million
▪️ 1 year to reach $10 million
▪️ 2 years to reach $50 million
▪️ 3 years to reach $100 million

After the first million, it sets the stage for exponential growth.

Sometimes I write completed tasks on my “to do” list just for the satisfaction of crossing them off

A few years ago, wine and whiskey investing was a crazy concept to most people.

Today, Vinovest has clients in 100+ countries invested in 650,000+ bottles.

Things may start slow. Right now, though, they’re heating up.

Oh deer

Drinks with a view

Brb. Might go adopt a tiny pig

What wines are LeBron James and JJ Redick drinking here?

My best guess: Armand Rosseau.

The left one is a Charmes Chambertin, Gevrey Chambertin, or Clos de la Roche. The right one is certainly Chambertin.

Price: up to $9,500

If you’re only going to have one glass of wine, make it count.

Japanese food is something else
