I Thee Wine

Please join me Friday, May 26 at 6PM at the Bookworm here in Omaha! I’ll read from my new book and we’ll have a wine tasting sponsored by V. Mertz. I hope you can join us! Cheers! 🍷 RSVP here: bookwormomaha.com/event/mark-gud… #judgmentofparis #books #winetasting #wine #history

In 1976 a wine tasting dramatically altered the world. Today I’m thrilled to announce my latest book, The Rise of Napa Valley Wineries: How the Judgment of Paris Put California Wine on the Map, is out from History Press. Order from your independent bookseller today. Cheers! 🍷

Can’t wait! Please join @WinerySmith myself and many others at @NebraskaVin benefiting @StephenCenterNE on April 1!

I’ve been beginning to write specifically about the @OakvilleGrowers AVA in Napa Valley, and I love it. I was absolutely amazed at @HoopesVineyard by the people and place, and this wine paired perfectly with board games on a cold afternoon. Oakville is amazing! Cheers friends! 🍷

I’m thrilled to be speaking about my new book @napabookmine in May. You can purchase it from them and get your free tickets at the link below. I hope to see you there! 📚 🍷 eventbrite.com/e/the-rise-of-…

I took this picture at Dachau years ago. A couple different publications asked me to write for them today, International Holocaust Remembrance Day, so I thought I’d share those essays below. tcpress.com/blog/willful-i… weareteachers.com/teaching-about…

Nebraska friends! If you work in wine or service and want to grow in your career, consider applying for a scholarship from @NebraskaVin for the Intro course through the Court of Master Sommeliers in Omaha March 29-30. Visit vinNEBRASKA.com/wine-scholarsh… to apply. Cheers! 🍷

I was honored to visit @BialeVineyards and get to know Bob and his family history for this piece in @NapaValleyLifeM. Please check it out below! #NapaValley #wine napavalleylifemagazine.com/the-biale-fami…

We had our first date here. We took engagement pictures here. We celebrate here. The introduction to my forthcoming book on Napa and wine is set here. Thanks for the memories, @V_Mertz and for an amazing lunch date today!

This is my dad and aunt in a one-room schoolhouse that my grandmother taught in. My Grandmother Helen Gudgel, Great Grandmother Mabel Allen, and Great Grandmother Emily Gudgel, were all teachers. It’s a heritage I’m proud to continue. #education #teacher #teaching #teachertwitter

Pretty amazing for me to wake up and see my own wine being advertised at @corkscrewwine! Its 95% @springmountaind Cab 5%, @StagsLeapAVA Petit Verdot and, if I may be immodest, it’s freaking fantastic! Find it at Corkscrew, @vinomas11, V Mertz, Barroco, or 801 Chophouse! Cheers!🍷
