Let’s Hang Out

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. My goal is to break the barrier into each category and break the boundaries between the two. One can have a life of multiple enjoyments. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
.
Thank you so so so much to Jamie Evans @theherbsomm, Cofounder @theherbalcocktailco and Founder @herbaceeofficial; Elizabeth Rice @ganjiersomm ; Jocelyn and Claudio of @budist_official — all of whom lent their words for this piece. And @stephjhonig, you helped me get the ball rolling on this piece and introduced me to the Budist platform!
.
And of course shoutout to @laurbuzz for the opportunity to contribute to your pages. The whole book looks amazing! (PS yes that IS my HP Lego build. If anyone was gonna ask it’d be you 😘)

A bit random….
.
I don’t think I’ve ever had an article written ABOUT me but thanks to Gary Stoller @forbes for the interest.
.
Feels weird to promote myself so ill give a shoutout to @passaggio_wines @gundlach_bundschu and @winecoyeah all of whom I mention as top spots in my local wine hood 💚✌️🥂

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.

Special shoutout to @adrinkingman, founder of @methodspirits ; Gilles Lapels @maidenii ; @alvaroaniano of @vermutfloresuy ; @giancarlo.mancino of mancinovermouth
All of whom spent IRL time speaking with me about their passion for this product; and of course (of course!) my forever rockstar @newman_kara whose insight and expertise helped me get the ball rolling on this project.

Have you opened up the pages 📄 of @sonomamag lately? So happy to be contributing to this local pub again 🥰.
.
For the March/April Spring issue of Sonoma Magazine, I had the pleasure of highlighting one of my favorite local Sonoma winemakers, @cynthiacosco . I’m thrilled at the opportunity to write about some of the new, innovative things this lady is working on at the moment @passaggio_wines .
.
Cheers to you Miss Cindy!!! 😘

Had a great micro road trip to @louismmartiniwinery and enjoyed a vertical tasting of @brancaia.winery . Winemaker Barbara Widmer is a true talent in her craft.

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. ✌️💚

Have you flipped open the pages of @sommjournal Feb issue? You may have noticed a (re)new contributor 👀. So happy to be filling these pages again: I had such stellar interviews and learning experiences with @davisbynumwines and @echavarrie for the Winery Spotlight and Sommelier Spotlight columns, respectively. Cheers 🥂

I entered myself into a writing competition, submitting a piece I was particularly proud of highlighting two of my favorite subjects: Regenerative Agriculture and an oft overlooked wine region. I don’t usually put myself out there but I’m happy to say I actually achieved first place in the editorial category for the San Francisco Press Club @pressclubsf

@katenash makes me very very happy indeed

I’ve been going to more concerts lately and this one was by far my fav. @katenash music has gotten me through a lot and she just continues to innovate and push boundaries and … yeah. Amazing.
.
This was her last stop on her tour. Stoked I got to see it.

Side note: I’ve never met another Kate Nash fan, and the room was packed with such a beautifully eclectic mix of humans. Good art spans the spectrum.

I want to give a special thanks to @belleandbottle for having me a guest on their new podcast that celebrates women in wine. It was a pleasure to chat about my experience growing within the wine and journalism industries. I hope some of my amusing anecdotes provide some motivation and inspiration for other folks—no matter how you identify. It was fun to share my journey thus far, and cheers to more fun to come.

It gives me great Pride 🏳️‍🌈 to share the stories of LGBTQ+ wine professionals in my hometown of Sonoma. Each of these humans has a unique story to share and their influence and impact in our industry, in our society, in our culture should be recognized and applauded.
