Thank you (as always) to @bettyhallock and @latimesfood for allowing me to tell tale of my near demise by wine tasting. Props to @patrickwine and @paxmahle and @jentman for having the chutzpah and inspiration to stage the “The 1976 Re-Do,” and for shining some much needed light on American wine. I am super proud to have been involved and to have had the opportunity to ramble about it. Can’t wait for the finals! https://www.latimes.com/food/story/2025-03-20/tasting-hundreds-of-american-wines-in-one-day
