A few years ago, a friend attended a Black History Month wine tasting which featured black-owned wines. I loved this idea and asked her to write about it for the blog. Since then, I have made an effort to support black-owned wineries. I have discovered quite a few over the past few years. Therefore, I decided to do an updated blog post on black-owned wineries and businesses in 2020. Since then I have been adding to this list and it has grown to 50+ businesses! It has also led to the collaboration of two Holiday Gift Guides of wine & spirit themed gifts featuring Black-owned businesses. 

This list of black-owned wineries & businesses also includes a few podcasts that feature black winemakers. Listening to podcasts is a great way to get familiar with these winemakers and their wines. In addition, if you enjoy attending wine events, check out the list at the end of this blog post. Plan a trip to one of these wine events that promote diversity & inclusion in the wine industry.

So, what do you think of this list of black-owned wineries? Can you believe this is just a partial list? There are other black winemakers out there but I thought this was a great start. Have you tried any of these black-owned wines or supported any of the black wine businesses or events listed? If you haven’t, what better time to show support than during Black History Month!

Before you leave, you can show me some support by purchasing my Ebooks! They are available on Amazon. There are destination guides to cities all over the world for food & wine lovers and a USA wine guide that describes the major wine regions in the USA. Stay tuned to the wine section of this blog for upcoming wine posts.

  • Funny but not funny!
Please Like, Comment, Share if you can see this! 
I have 19,000 followers and Instagram is showing my posts to 50 people. Like WTH?!! 
Quality posts with good pictures, videos & travel information and I get 350 views on reels With 19K followers! When I started making reels with no effort I received triple of that. 

I’m being told it’s just a competitive algorithm and nothing is wrong with my account but that is hard to believe. It’s very frustrating as a content creator when working with brands. 

Who else feels my pain? 😣😣

  • Have I mentioned that I hate cold 🥶 weather?!! It’s cold again in Atlanta and I’m miserable! 

The only time I’m ok with being cold is if I’m in beautiful surroundings in a cold weather place with a purpose like Whistler BC! 

I was there last April and Oh M G!!! I ❤️ it! 
Stunning views 🎑
Delicious food & wine 🍷 & unique experiences like the vodka ice 🧊 bar @thebearfoot 
Amazing skiing 🎿 of course 
The luxury indoor/outdoor spa @scandinavewhis 
Cultural stops @slccwhistler 
And of course my stay @fairmontwhistlr who doesn’t want to stay at a Chateau resort in the mountains 🏔️?! 

Have you been to @gowhistler ? If not catch that flight ✈️ this winter!

  • I am so excited for my @culinarytravels_thesophislife trip with @goaheadtours to Northern Italy 🇮🇹 and I will be telling you all about it at 6pm ET tonight! One of the stops is Bologna and we will be taking a pasta 🍝 making class!! 
Each day we will be incorporating fun food & wine 🍷 experiences along with cultural tours. Join us!! Spots are limited. Sign up for my newsletter for details!

Repost from @goaheadtours
•
Don’t just visit Italy, take a little of it home with you. “The pasta-making class in Bologna is an absolute highlight of the tour. The base recipe for the dough is also so easy to remember and replicate back home,” said staffer Kyle. Book your Food & Wine: Northern Italy & the Italian Riviera tour to start your culinary journey.
  • Did anyone see this video by @oprah over the Holidays? It was hilarious 🤣 

She dropped the truffle she was about to use in her lightly scrambled eggs 🍳 It landed on the floor where her dogs 🐕 had recently been seen in the video. She blew on it before using it and laughed calling it the “30 second rule” 😅😅
I am sure her floors are cleaner than any of ours. 

I credit Oprah for learning more about truffles. I had tried truffle fries in restaurants but I have since had them with other dishes. 

In October on the @culinarytravels_thesophislife trip to Northern Italy 🇮🇹 we will be truffle hunting in Alba with a dog 🐕 and an experienced hunter from a multigenerational truffle hunting family-yes it’s that serious!! 

I can’t wait!! This is just one of the exceptional experiences that are part of the food + wine tour I have curated with @goaheadtours 

Tune in tomorrow LIVE at 6pm to hear all the details. Bookings for this trip start on Thursday!! Remember Morocco sold out in 2 days!!
