W**e is facing a moment of reckoning.
A recent feature in SoCal News Group's Premium Magazine explores the challenges reshaping California’s w**e industry - from changing consumer habits and lower alcohol consumption to rising production costs, alternative beverages and environmental pressures.
We’re proud to see three MCPR clients contributing their expertise to the conversation: Jon McPherson, master w**emaker for South Coast W**ery Resort & Spa and Carter Estate W**ery & Resort; Advanced Sommelier Vito Pasquale of Selanne Steak Tavern and VIII by Selanne; and Erica Williams, beverage manager at Terranea Resort.
Thank you Jenn Tanaka for your in-depth reporting!
