On this occasion, Nancy Hawks Miller, our Director of Education, thought it would be fun to sit down with David, Geoff, and Colleen, the Owners of Goosecross, to take a look at where we've been and also look forward to what the future holds.

"Ask Our Educator" is one of our favorite website features at goosecross.com because people write in with all kinds of wine-related questions and sometimes we get a real conversation going! In episode 57 (December 2007) we covered questions about screwcaps, sulfites, and more. Since then you've had questions about decanting, how to buy a good wine glass, and how to store left-over wine among other things. So, here we go with a new installment of the "top five" questions!
