Once upon a time, nearly all of the world’s great Pinot Noirs were made in Burgundy. Even though that’s no longer true, Burgundy’s Pinots remain a universe of their own. What makes them distinctive? See my Wine to Know this week. As we move deeper into fall, I am filled with anticipation for this year’s Come Over October, a pro-wine grassroots campaign I created in 2024 with my cofounders Kimberly Charles and Gino Colangelo. Our pro-bono campaign has now reached 3.9 billion media impressions. See my Blog for why the campaign is so important to me. Also inside: a great Quiz and a helpful Ask Karen. And finally, don’t miss it: our Annual Back-to-School Special is on! See Exceptional Opportunities for the details.
