The zine was born from a desire to spend some time off screen…I needed to create breaks from digital life. I was also three years into my wine writing career; the honeymoon phase was over and now it was time to introduce some play in order to stay inspired and engaged.

My intention for the zine is to also allow you some analog, playful wine time. If you, too, are disenchanted with social media, here is some snail mail you can use to self-soothe. In each issue, you’ll find a story of something I’ve recently uncovered in my studies and a mindmap showing you why I think that particular story is important.
