Leading the tasting, author of The Wine Chronicles - Writing Your Own Fine Wine Book, Greg Moore has been a well-known sommelier since 1977.  After working at the prestigious Le Bec-Fin, Greg opened his first wine shop in NJ in 1996 selling handpicked, small-farm wines from some of the finest producers in the world.   In 1999 Greg opened his second store in Wilmington, Delaware. Food and Wine Magazine named it "Best New Wine Shop in America", in 2001.  This third store, with a mezzanine floor dedicated to wine classes and special events, opened in May of 2006. Of special interest is that every Moore Brothers wine is "sourced" in a direct, personal relationship with the farmer-grower who made it, and is shipped and stored in perfect conditions of temperature control.
