![]() Today Karen MacNeil is one of the most respected wine writers on the globe. Wine Bible 2nd Edition is a huge undertaking. Wine was a man’s world, and it took amazing determination by Karen to gain acceptance and succeed in the wine writing community. Karen was shunned by these men and by the business end of wine. At that time, there were five prominent men in New York who were wine writers and critics. She eventually began writing articles for the NY Times. She took on odd jobs to make a living, and these jobs lead her to an interest in food and wine. We were quite surprised to learn that Karen left home when she was 15. Karen MacNeil was the keynote speaker at our recent Wine Bloggers Conference held in the Finger Lakes town of Corning. Perseverance is just what it takes to produce a comprehensive and accurate wine book of this magnitude. I think it will help you appreciate her perseverance. I often refer to the Wine Bible whenever I need clarification on a wine question or topic. I just received a complimentary copy of the newly-released Wine Bible 2nd Edition, and I can tell you this is one serious upgrade to a fantastic reference and wine guide.įirst, a little about Karen MacNeil. ![]() Karen MacNeil’s Wine Bible 2nd edition is out!
