Gregory, the Wine Legend

We moved away from Hyde Park 5 years ago, so it was a delight to once again hear some of Gregory’s wine stories, which we enjoyed from time to time when we lived there. I would have liked to hear about more of Gregory’s celebrity customers, but Barak Obama does take the cake, so to speak. Thanks—I will definitely listen to some other episodes.
