7 Wine Changemakers to Watch

If you close your eyes and think of a sommelier, the stereotype that surfaces is pretty likely a certain kind of person—an old white guy in a suit.

There’s a little bit of an art behind wine pairings and you’ll want to get it right so each complements the other. Don’t worry, we have you covered.
