Celebrate Chardonnay Day: May 26

We tend to romanticize “pioneers” who blaze new paths, but the reality is more complicated. Even in an ostensibly progressive place like California, many women in wine have faced difficulty on the job. In the 1970s, some wineries banned women from working in production cellars, instead relegating them to the lab. This drove highly qualified women to establish their own wineries where they could work more freely. We honor all the early women in California winemaking who hurdled daunting obstacles to pursue their craft. This collection was curated by Amy Bess Cook, who built the beverage industry’s first and most comprehensive directory of female vintners, along with an accompanying wine club.

Open the door to a New Zealand secret with this curated collection of some of New Zealand’s top Chardonnays.

My grandmother was from Sicily and, despite living in the north of Italy, I feel my soul belongs there. Everything in Sicily is beautiful and diverse — the fresh and crystalline sea, the light of the sun, the warmth of the people. Welcome to the beauty factory. I decided to select the best expression of Sicilian wines to let you dream about this magical place while sipping a glass of Catarratto or Nerello Mascalese. These 12 wines are the benchmark of the unique expression from the different parts of this wonderful island, and... look: it's almost summer, why don't you plan a trip here?

With an increasing number of wines available in this format, boxed wine has come a long way in terms of quality and now rivals traditional bottled wine in that regard. But boxed wine also comes with the additional benefits of  being convenient to store, longer lasting, no fear of broken glass, and less packaging. After you're done with your day's driving, there's nothing better than a nice glass of red. So here are some boxed reds perfect for packing next time you take a road trip.

Entering the world of natural wines can be tough.  What does it mean?  Why is it different?  What does it taste like?  That's why we got one of California's leading natural winemakers, Kevin Luther of [Lucid Wines](https://lucidwinery.com/), to select some of his favorite natural wines from California for your enjoyment!  Here's what Kevin had to say:

"Natural wine is so hot right now, but some are not so hot, and it can be a bit of a gamble to buy a natural wine at random. That is why I have created this list of the best natural wine producers and their best, most drinkable wines. This selection of natural wines is sure to please for the hardcore natural wine fan as well as the curious dabbler."
