We are pleased to announce that internationally known wine and food writer Daniel Rogov and his forums will be joining WLDG. "Rogov", as he likes to be known, is currently the wine and restaurant critic for the Israel edition of the International Herald Tribune as well as Israeli daily newspaper HaAretz. He is also a consultant to Hugh Johnson's Encyclopedia of Wine and a regular contributor on wine and food to Tom Stevenson's Wine Report and a number of European publications. Though admirably experienced with great wines from all over the world, he has established himself as the authority on Israeli wines and his annually-published book, Rogov's Guide to Israeli Wines, is in its fifth year.
For years Rogov has also been a stalwart presence in the online wine discussion community, holding court on his own forums at one of the 'net's first independent sites, Strat's Place, founded by Art and Betsy Stratmeyer, which will be closing this year due to Art's sad and recent death.
We are proud to give Rogov and his many online friends around the globe a new place to call 'home'. In addition to two forums that will be accessible from the Board Index just like WLDG and FLDG, and that will enable the Rogov community to relocate intact, Rogov's wine and food articles, known collectively as Rogov's Ramblings, will now enjoy publication on WineLoversPage.com.
As Rogov's Place goes live in the next few weeks, please join us in giving our new friends a very warm WLDG welcome.
