Janet's Story
Life
What a great life! Lived in Paris, New York, Denver, Washington D.C. Now my husband and I live in Punta del Este, Uruguay, Mendoza, Argentina, Palm Harbor, Florida and Lucerne, Switzerland (hopefully next year). We travel frequently all over the world. Our travels usually take us to Europe and South America although we have been to the far east as well.
I met my husband at the University of Chicago when we were both getting our MBAs. I am also a lawyer and used my law degree in business though I did not practice with a firm.
My husband and I retired a couple of years ago and bought a couple of vineyards outside Mendoza, Argentina and now we are producing a Malbec and a "bordeaux like" blended win...Expand for more
e. We think it is important to keep working, have certain goals to meet and keep score with a P & L. And the wine business is a great deal more fun than working in an office.
We just had our first harvest this past April. Our wine was transfered to the oak in May but will not be ready until 2011. That gives us time to come up with names and a marketing plan.
Otherwise, my time is filled with learning Spanish, which comes in handy in Uruguay and Argentina. I also founded the English Speaking Club in Punta del Este, which takes up some of my time organizing the group and when we are in Punta I take sailing lessons. We live on the Atlantic Ocean in Punta and sailing seems to be the thing to do.
