Wine, Women and Words
Just a few short decades ago wine journalism was primarily a male domain.
Then along came a few pioneers, like Jancis Robinson, and the wine world changed.
Here you will find a few of my favorite wine blogs, newsletters, books, and more by women.
It is an ongoing project that will be continually revised and expanded. You can help by telling me about something I have missed (in the guestbook) or by voting for your favorite.
