7. Food & Wine Magazine - Executive Wine Editor Ray Isle on the birth of Food & Wine Magazine and the recent canned wine movement

On this episode, I sit down with a very well known and highly respected Titan in the food and wine world, Ray Isle. Ray is the Executive Wine Editor at Food & Wine Magazine, with a circulation of nearly 1 million subscribers, where he oversees the overall wine coverage. His articles about wine, beer, food and spirits have appeared in a wide range of publications, and he has been nominated twice for a James Beard Award, and has twice won the IACP Award for Narrative Beverage Writing. He is a frequent guest on national media, appearing on programs such as Today, CNBC’s On the Money, and Squawk Box, NPR’s All Things Considered, and American Public Media’s Splendid Table Ray and I discuss a wide array of subjects including trying a 150 year old ship wrecked wine, arm wrestling with The Rock, the birth of Food & Wine Magazine and the recent canned wine movement.
