Of all the people who could have an impact on wine legislation in the US, it seems unlikely that that person would be an 82-year-old grandmother living in an assisted living facility. But Anita LeBrun loves her Pinot Grigio. See our Wine Clip video for the sweet story of how Anita took charge. Our Wine to Know this week is a delicious, vibrant, juicy raspberry-scented red wine from the natural wine producer Martha Stoumen. It’s the kind of wine you won’t want to stop tasting. Quizzards, you will love this week’s Quizzes, the answers to which are so culturally fascinating. And lastly, while research on smell generally lags behind other sense research, a recent fact from neuroscientists is truly mind-blowing. See the Numbers. And check out the Exceptional Opportunity at the end of this issue (only available to WineSpeed subscribers).
Warmest wishes, Karen
