Gary Vaynerchuk’s Wine-Tasting Checklist
FACT: I only drink three beverages – water, tea and wine.
My husband Jay and I belong to a wine club and we get different types of red and white delivered every few months. It’s a good thing or else I would only drink Pinot Grigio. It’s my favorite and now that the weather is warmer – it will be my varietal of choice.
We recently visited friends in San Diego and went vineyard hopping – which is where we took this picture. But I’m trying to broaden my horizons because my wine palette isn’t as refined as I’d like. So you know by now that when I want to learn more about something…I make a list. So for this task I went to the best: Gary Vaynerchuk – wine expert extraordinaire and founder of DailyGrape.com.
Medicine Hunter Travels the World with a List
Since starting this blog I’ve realized — I’m not alone in this list making thing. There are many other notable list makers out there to learn from. Each month I’ll be featuring a successful “list producer” to prove that list making will help you to achieve more in life.

I’ve produced many segments with Chris and we’ve become good friends through the years. To say his work is fascinating is an understatement. Whether he’s traveling to Siberia or the Amazon — Chris never leaves home without a list!
Q: Why do you call yourself a compulsive list producer?
A: I would say that I am a consistent list maker. Over the years I have found that if I make lists, I can be more focused and get more done. So lists greatly enhance my overall efficiency. Read more

A good-fitting bra is arguably the most important garment in a woman’s wardrobe. Lucky for me my good friend, Jené Luciani, happens to be a bra guru and is willing to share her list for buying the perfect bra.
