This Guide Serves a Purpose For Our Community

If you ask people of color, along with this next generation, about wine, the answers are the same. They didn’t grow up with wine, it's too expensive, I don’t understand it. Our scholars created a guide to make it easy for you. Get your wine lingo together, be ready for your next dinner, and go to the supermarket like an expert.
