Those of you who know me, or even ‘know me’ (v Those of you who know me, or even ‘know me’ (via online-y things), know that one of my absolute favorite things to research and report on is regenerative agriculture. Ever since I wrote my first piece on the topic, I’ve been hooked. And since then, I’ve continued my coverage on the topic, as so much more scientific analysis has taken place to further align the practice within the global ag space. Wine is the perfect vehicle to help push those possibilities further. . Thank you to @donumestate (Angelica de Vere Mabray , Tony Chapman and Daniel Fishman) and the team @bonterra (Joseph Brinkley , Meredith Soden) as well as Charlie Dubbe at @agrology.ag, a Public Benefit Corporation for teaching me so much during this two-day deep-dive into all things regenerative. Love that I was able to write about (some of!) the research and results from this wholistic farming approach for the June/July @sommjournal. . Oh! You want to read it? Cool.

Received my first print copy of @fullpourmag and…whose byline is that? 🤭 . I had so much fun reporting on the similarities between wine-and-weed tasting experiences—of which there are many.

Vermouth Past & Present: My first #bylinebrag for Vermouth Past & Present: My first #bylinebrag for @guildsomm was a fun and challenging one, exploring an oft overlooked and under appreciated drinks category. . Vermouth is an aromatized, fortified wine. The drink is so immersed in cocktail culture that it often flies under the wine-education radar, though it is, indeed, made from a base wine, fortified, infused with botanicals, and sweetened to varying degrees. .

The Path to Industry-Wide Adoption of Regenerative The Path to Industry-Wide Adoption of Regenerative Viticulture: For regenerative viticulture to make a meaningful impact on the wine industry, it needs to be adopted by both boutique wineries and high-volume producers—can it be done? . I had the pleasure of researching and reporting on the nuances of regenerative viticulture for @sevenfiftydaily If you follow me, you know this is a topic near and dear to my heart. Special thanks to @cainethompson head of sustainability for O’Neill Vintners & Distillers @oneillwines; @stephen_de_mirabeau of Domaine Mirabeau and the Regenerative Viticulture Foundation @regenerativeviticulture; @petite.sarah of @maggyhawk and @windracerwines and the whole @jacksonfamilywines team; @familiatorreswines and of course @bonterra and @regenerativeorganic as well as a plethora of other folks who interviewed for this piece and answered all my nerdy Viti questions in an effort to better understand and communicate on this uber important topic. . Humans, if there’s one takeaway in this piece, hear this now: . “We can’t farm if people aren’t buying our wines,” says Bonterra’s Brinkley. “I’d love to see a whole lot of consumer fire for regenerative or even organic. That’s when and where I think producers will respond.” . Adds O’Neill’s Thompson: “In order for adoption to advance, it will come down to consumers seeking our regenerative-certified brands and retailers and restaurateurs seeking regenerative-certified wines for their stores and restaurants.” . Be the change you wish to see. ✌️💚 . #regenerative #regenerativeviticulture #regenerativefarming #viticulture #wine #winebusiness #wineindustry #wineeducation #winejournalism #winejournalist #winewriter #winewriterslife #wineenthusiast #wineenthusiastlife #winelover #wineprofessionals #winefuture
