This week, I'm joined by Patron and friend Steve Tocco is the wine buyer and manager of a fine wine store near Boulder, Colorado -- Atlas Valley Purveyors (yes, I've been there!). He is great at what he does -- creative, community oriented, great palate -- basically he is the wine guy we all want!

I asked him to come on the show to share tips on how to best work with a local wine retailer to create great relationships that lead to better wines.

We discuss:

  • How to figure out your shopping style
  • How create a relationship with your wine shop person
  • How to glean what someone knows so you can decide if you want to go back to the store
  • Corporate buying v. small retail
  • Important questions to answer before you go into a shop (and if you don't ask those quesitons, what the wine shop person should ask you!)
  • How to take advantage of discounts and special things the store may offer

It's a fun show and a great checklist of things to look for to make sure you find the right local shop for you!
