Article on Chinese Immigrants’ Contributions to Northern California Wine Country includes perspectives from

Asian Wine Association of America President & Co-Founder Susan R Lin MW 

Congratulations to journalist Julie Zigoris on the publication of her piece ‘The Chinese Roots of Northern California’s Wine Industry Run Deep’ on the key role Chinese immigrants played in creating the wine country of Sonoma and Napa Valley we know today.

We are grateful to Ms. Zigoris for including quotes from Susan R Lin MW, President & Co-Founder of Asian Wine Association of America, in her exploration of the history and current contributions of Asians in the wine industry. 

From the article:

“Most people just don’t assume Asian and wine together in the same sentence,” Lin said. “But we’ve always been a fact of the industry.”

Read Julie’s thoughtful and incisive piece, ‘The Chinese Roots of Northern California’s Wine Industry Run Deep’ and learn about the important contributions by Asian immigrants in our country’s wine industry.
