It's been some time since I've had the chance to write, but as we approach the DTC symposium, I feel compelled to share what the industry expresses behind closed doors.

In 2020, I spent a great deal of time with legendary importer Martine Saunier, capturing some of the stories from her extraordinary life. In tribute to her recent passing, here are a few of them in her own words. https://t.co/3kQqZTynit

Forget all that depressing news about how no one is drinking wine, the planet is burning down, and we might be facing another pandemic thanks to the damn birds. I've got something worth smiling for. Wine just got FUN-SIZED! https://t.co/vZVBFOfPTh

The @drinktothatpod just released episode 501, featuring a sobering conversation with Meike Näkel about winemaking and (barely) surviving floods in Germany's Ahr Valley. Check it out. https://t.co/ht4i6I4obX

You know things are changing in the wine world when you see Sine Qua Non wines on sale for 30-50% off. Never thought I'd see the day. https://t.co/ocX7hlCsOu

Some thoughts after learning that the OIV's recent decision to officially define what "Old Vines" means was partially based on the Old Vine Registry that I've been working so hard on over the past couple years. https://t.co/y1Kql1sb4i

The man @dieworkwear came on the pod.

- i was shockingly nervous to talk to him
- he stayed anonymous (so no video)
- he's smart as hell

a lot of people are likely thinking "a fashion guy on MFM, huh?"

but he's perfect for a few reasons:

- his rise. grew his audience in a huge way, quickly.

- i think life is so much richer than just business and money. to me business is part self-expression. what i love about derek is that he's introduce me to a new type of self expression: clothes. previously, like many men, I thought "dudes shouldn't care about this". And even though i always loved clothes and style, I thought art and this type of stuff was a waste of time. Well, now i think differently.

- its practical. we talk about how to dress better.

- he's great with words. i love that ish.

So here it is: https://t.co/BclehfMFDe
