GARRETT DAY has been a passionate ambassador for wine for nearly 20 years. Believing that the right wine has almost infinite variations, Garrett has consistently tasted 4000+ wines a year for over a decade.
In the early 1990's Garrett and his wife, Devon, plunged headlong into the world of wine with a move to Napa Valley. Work ensued at the Ambrosia Catalogue of Fine Wine, where Garrett became a sales consultant, wine educator and eventually wine merchant for clubs, catalogues and websites. For six years, Garrett was part of one of the most innovative, customer service driven wine retailers in the country. Shortly after Ambrosia transitioned into Winetasting.com (The Winetasting Network), Garrett left the company to work for himself.
Over the past seven years, Garrett has enjoyed working with winery and retail clients, buying wine, building wine lists, writing wine-related copy for labels, newsletters, websites etc. From 2003-2006, Garrett focused much of his attention as a wine buyer for Winebuys.com, an online wine retailer and an outpost for several of the most respected wine & spirits retailers in California. Winebuys.com focused on the finest wines from around the world, sold at extremely competitive prices and was consistently rated the best wine retailer online by BizRate.
Most importantly, Garrett is a full-time dad to 10-year-old son, Guthrie (the coolest kid in the world!). He is also a part-time ranch hand for his wife, Devon (12 horses!). Garrett can almost always be found holding a guitar; he loves to cook for family and friends, enjoys live music, reading, traveling, and generally being enthralled by some artistic endeavor or another. … More wine! |
