ASI Vote on the return of Russian sommeliers raises questions
In late May, the ASI General Assembly was held in Taipei, Taiwan. Among the organizational issues discussed by the presidents of the national associations belonging to ASI, a motion to reinstate Russian sommeliers was unexpectedly put to a vote. Following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, ASI had not issued any official statements regarding the status of the Russian association, and only in response to a media inquiry did it state that RAS is on hold.

Clyzm Wines
Austin Culver of Clyzm Wines Photos Courtest of Clyzm Wines The year Austin Culver was born, his father planted a small hobby Zinfandel vineyard. He did so, in part, to teach Austin the importance of work ethic, especially in the area of agriculture. So Austin was engaged in vineyard work at a very young age, but had no intention of becoming a winemaker. In fact, he went to college to major in biochemical engineering, but ended up graduating with a degree in biochemistry. Austin wasn’t your typical pre-med biochemistry major. His goal after graduating was to get a job to do with cannabis, beer or wine. Austin worked with cannabis, beer and urine samples before he eventually found his way back to grapes and wine. He worked two years for Cascade Cliffs Winery, before heading to New Zealand and eventually the Willamette Valley to work harvests. When he was ready to launch his own label, he returned to the Columbia Gorge. Austin s
