Lulie Halstead is a globally recognized expert in wine business strategy, consumer insights, and marketing, with over two decades of experience shaping the wine industry’s research and advisory landscape. We first met Lulie at the Direct-to-Consumer Wine Symposium a few years ago and frequently listen to her podcast, “A Question of Drinks” that she does with her friend Felicity Carter, available on all platforms.

Lulie is a globally recognized expert in wine business strategy, consumer behavior, and drinks industry marketing but is best known as the co‑founder and former CEO of Wine Intelligence, a leading research and insights provider to the global wine industry, which she established in 2002 and later became part of the IWSR Group.

Why You Should Know More About California’s Wente Vineyards
Three-quarters of California’s famous chardonnay vines originated in the vineyards of one winemaking family: Wente Family Vineyards. The Wente [pronounced WEN-tee] family has been growing grapes and producing wine continuously since 1883. They’re based in Livermore, about an hour’s drive east of San Francisco. Years ago, the first time I visited, they took our media group on a horseback walk through the local hills. I was petrified. But the horse—and the people—were kind, calming me so I could look around […]

The games are far apart and the ticket prices astronomical, so while the United States gets to play co-host with Canada and Mexico to this summer’s FIFA World Cup, most of us will be watching the matches from home. Weerts came to Sonoma County in 1999 to work at Vérité and in 2004 became the winemaker at Stonestreet, where he made the wines through 2014.

🎧Ep 609: A History of Champagne (How Champagne Became Champagne) – Part 1
This is part of a two-part series on the history of Champagne, which tells the story of how Champagne became Champagne! Photo: Champagne vineyards before mechanization. Source: Union des Maisons de Champagne I fell down a bit of a rabbit hole when I discovered an entire encyclopedia of the history of Champagne on the Union des Maisons de Champagne site. It was the equivalent of 200 pages of information on Champagne from its origins up until the 1980s and was detailed and fascinating. I tried to cull it down, but the information was just too vast and too interesting not to share! So this will be a two-parter. In this show I cover: The origins of the Champagne vineyard with the Romans in the late 400s through the Middle Ages The 13th Century when Champagne was used in the coronation of the French kings and began its life as a wine for royalty The changes from feudalism to sharecropping through the 1500s, with all the ups and downs in the fortunes of the region The grapes of the time and
