“Over the last 20+ years as a member of the service industry [. . .] and a current marketing and sales manager for a local wine shop, I would like to thank you and your company personally for bringing such special wines to the market. Being part of a service-oriented shop that has thrived in the area since 1954, it is exciting for us to find that wine which we never have to feel is going to bankrupt the guest we want to enjoy it. The community we serve (Columbus, Ohio) has really embraced the wines that you have made available and there is no better feeling than when someone excitedly returns to say that the wine we recommended was “special” or “unexpected.” This is always the case with the wines you have available.
In short, thank you for the work you have done and making wine less about the label or the “splurge” and more about the every day experience that we feel everyone should be able to afford to have.
We look forward to the future of Mary Taylor Wine and to the next special wine that you help us experience.”

“We’ve known Mary for many years and were early fans of the now legendary screeds she used to write about the producers she represented. These days she seeks out some of the best values in Europe and imports them into the states under her own distinctive black and white label. Her considerable skill, her vast experience and her myriad connections allow her to source affordable “appellation” wines that speak from a particular place but are priced [approachably]. These wines do truly offer precise terroir and exceptional value – a rare combination. Join us [. . .] in welcoming the very passionate, very smart, very supercallifragilistic Mary Taylor!”
