I’ve put together a mystery case of wine that is being auctioned off for a great cause. Check it out and big generously to fund wine education scholarships for working professionals. https://t.co/WmPS1eqs2V

Why don't San Francisco's bars and restaurants showcase local wines in the same way they showcase local produce and other purveyors? In the land of locavores, wine has been left off the map. My latest (free to read) article for @JancisRobinson https://t.co/iMEfQeSWAx

Just a wine-related PSA for all y'all on Champagne Day: if you're saving Champagne for, you know, that moment...? Don't keep it in a normal refrigerator. Home fridges dehumidify the air and will dry out the cork, causing it to shrink which can make your bubbly go flat or worse.

I got a chance to sit down with Michael Cruse earlier this year and taste through the latest releases from his cult sparkling wine brand Ultramarine, as well as the wines he makes under Cruse Wine Co. Here are my thoughts on these two portfolios: https://t.co/9A5ktkfGY1

Great interview published this morning in The Buyer about the Old Vine Registry Seal project that I've worked so hard to turn into a reality. https://t.co/FTS0yvu35F #oldvines #nonprofit

The #OldVineRegistry has introduced the OV Seal to give producers the chance to promote on their label how old their vines are & help promote the importance and significance of old vines. @vinography explains what he hopes the new seal can achieve. https://t.co/gRzMdjqIaa

Data point of one: I attended a small trade tasting at a Napa winery today, where a Gen Z Certified Somm (I know because she told me she was both) asked who I wrote for. I told her Jancis Robinson. Her response: "Who's that?" Someone else kindly (and gently) answered for me.

Coming soon to a wine shelf near you: The OVR Seal. A mark that allows wine producers, importers, and retailers to indicate that a wine was made from a vineyard registered in the Old Vine Registry. Connecting people and old vineyards one bottle at a time. https://t.co/d432MQ69Y1
