Posted by Hank Zona was a corporate headhunter for 25 years, but he’s been a self-proclaimed “wine geek” for his entire life.
After leaving the corporate world, the Staten Island, NY native and father of two, turned his passion into a business doing wine tasting for individuals, corporate clients and fundraisers as well as wine-and-food events.
