Writer and Wine Professor, WSET 3
Amy Beth’s approach to covering wine is optimistic and forward thinking, reflecting the wine industry as a place where advancement, growth, and adaptation are second nature. Her writing positions wine as a source of joy, sensory expansion, and cultural value—a vehicle for connection with self, others, and world. In championing these values, Amy Beth’s journalism explores regional identity, adaptive trends in economic and technical innovation, and place-driven stories of metamorphosis across the global wine industry, with reporting from Texas, Washington, Oregon, California, France, Italy, Spain, Australia, and beyond. She holds Level 3 certification from the Wine & Spirit Education Trust, and was the Washington State Wine Commission’s Allen Shoup Fellow for Writers and Communicators from 2025-26. She regularly contributes to major wine and lifestyle publications including Wine Enthusiast, SevenFifty Daily, Imbibe, Frenchly, Decanter, and The Vintner Project, and publishes on Substack as Wine Flights.
