Welcome to my wine adventure! I’m Mary-Frances Makichen, a professional writer with a deep interest in all things wine related, living amidst the vineyards of Sonoma County. My journey into the world of wine began when I worked at a biodynamic, low-intervention winery. I got the opportunity to immerse myself in the art and science of winemaking while gaining insights into the intricate relationship between grape farming and climate change.
Join me as I explore great experiences and wineries in Sonoma, Napa and beyond, focusing on sustainability, chemical free grape growing and low-intervention winemaking.
I’m passionate about highlighting artisanal, sustainable wines and support an inclusive, open to everyone approach to wine.
Let’s raise a glass and embark on this wine adventure together.
