With New Year's celebrations just days away, it may be time to brush up on your wine knowledge. Joey Letchinger, Founder of sommelier-owned wine concierge Wine Larder, was with us to explain how his company assists people looking for a wine-filled lifestyle.
Letchinger breaks down how he helps consumers get the most out of their wine experiences. To do so, his company finds wines from around the world at all price points and in every style. He also discusses how Wine Larder appeals to the millennial wine drinker. For those on a budget, there are plenty of interesting wines that fall within an affordable price range, he says.
We’ve seen shifting consumer tastes in beer, and now we are seeing it in the wine sector too. Letchinger says the idea of natural wine has increased in popularity, because consumers don’t want mass-produced wines. Millennials are the driving force behind the movement demanding how the wine is made, he adds.
Apple CEO Tim Cook said Thursday that the majority of iPhones sold in the U.S. in the current fiscal quarter will be sourced from India, while iPads and other devices will come from Vietnam as the company works to avoid the impact of President Trump’s tariffs on its business. Apple’s earnings for the first three months of the year topped Wall Street’s expectations thanks to high demand for its iPhones, and the company said tariffs had a limited effect on the fiscal second quarter’s results. Cook added that for the current quarter, assuming things don’t change, Apple expects to see $900 million added to its costs as a result of the tariffs.
