Find out more about Lisa:

Lisa is a wine consultant and writer who specializes in taking annoyingly complicated subjects (wine anyone?) and presenting them in a clear, concise way to the harried consumer who wants to learn more – but not too much more. Although her four different wine certifications speak to her technical knowledge, Lisa believes that "too much information" sums up how most wine professionals speak to the non-wine-professional consumer. She believes that the wine industry needs to learn how to speak consumer and not the other way around. She can be reached at NYwineExaminer@gmail.com.
