The Ordinary Tokyo Wine Drinker

I am just an ordinary wine drinker that happens to live in Tokyo.  I like wine, but I really don't know the science and complexity behind it all.  I'm trying to learn more about wine, but living in a country where the Japanese language is my secondary it has been difficult.  I decided to open this site to not only log the wines I have tried, but hopefully open a new avenue where we can share wines which we have all enjoyed and know where we can find them here in Tokyo/Japan.

I've found some really Sh*ty wine stores here in Tokyo (especially during the summer time, where they leave the cases of wine in the window store front basking in the heat) and I've found some interesting stores where wine geeks frequent; however what I haven't found is an English website/blog dedicated to "the ordinary tokyo wine drinker."  So here I am hoping to fill that void.   

Working and living in Japan where  the Beaujolais Nouveau and Yellow Tail wines are often the highlights of many nomikai's; I hope this blog will help you find some alternatives.
