In episode 77 of Words With Michelle – the podcast (my podcast!), I sat down with the knowledgeable and passionate sommelier, Beverly Crandon. Beverly, a certified sommelier through the Court of Masters, brings her expertise and love for wine to the forefront, sharing insights that will inspire both wine novices and connoisseurs alike.

During the episode, Beverly discusses her initiative, the Spice Food and Wine Group, which aims to make wine more approachable and inclusive by pairing it with diverse cuisines. She shares how food and wine can bridge cultural gaps, bringing people together over shared experiences and flavors. Her work with Vinequity, a not-for-profit organization supporting BIPOC individuals in the wine industry, further highlights her commitment to diversity and inclusion.

Beverly’s passion for wine is infectious, and her dedication to making the wine industry more diverse and inclusive is truly inspiring. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in wine, food, and the cultural connections that bring us all together. So grab a glass of your favourite wine, sit back, and enjoy this engaging conversation with Beverly Crandon.
