W W S an Rafael, Calif.—Wines & Vines magazine promoted its senior editor, Andrew Adams, to the editor position to take over from Jim Gordon who has relinquished the editor post after 12 years. Adams has been with the North American wine industry publication since 2011 and brings to the job a wealth of experience in journalism and the winemaking community. Gordon will continue on the magazine's staff as editor at large, primarily a reporting and writing role that will get him out into vineyards and cellars more often to cover news and trends in the winemaking and wine business arenas. The switch in roles provides continuity in terms of personnel and editorial content as the 12,000 (print/digital) circulation magazine approaches its 100th year of publication in 2019. Wines & Vines serves North American winemakers, grape growers and wine marketers with breaking industry news, how-to articles and market research both in the monthly print edition and at WinesandVines.com. Adams now directs all editorial content, new content initiatives and manages a team of staff writ- ers and editors as well as corre- spondents in California, the Northwest and Eastern regions. He is a former newspaper editor and reporter who worked one har- vest at Beringer Vineyards and three at Starmont Winery, crush- ing grapes, dragging hoses, wash- ing barrels and doing lab analysis before joining Wines & Vines. Adams' wide-ranging duties at the magazine have included writ- ing Technical Spotlight profiles on new and renovated wineries, writ- ing weekly and sometimes daily industry news stories, writing dozens of reports on barrels and cooperages, analyzing industry data and speaking at industry con- ferences including Central Coast Insights and the Wines & Vines Packaging conference. Adams worked for the Lodi News-Sentinel newspaper for four years, as a reporter and later man- aged daily news operations as city editor. He was a reporter for The Daily Astorian in Astoria, Ore., and a reporter for the Sonoma Index-Tribune in his hometown of Sonoma, Calif. He earned a BA degree in journalism at the Uni- versity of Oregon, where he also was a reporter and editor of the daily, student-run newspaper the Oregon Daily Emerald. Gordon has been covering the wine industry as an editor and reporter for more than 35 years, and joined Wines & Vines in 2006 as editor. He is also a contributing editor for Wine Enthusiast maga- zine and past director of the an- nual Symposium for Professional Wine Writers at Meadowood Napa Valley. He was editor in chief for two books by publisher Dorling Kindersley of London: Opus Vino, which was a finalist in the James Beard Awards, and 1000 Great Everyday Wines. Gor- don was managing editor of Wine Spectator for 12 years and editor in chief of Wine Country Living magazine for four, during which time he helped create Wine Coun- try Living TV for NBC station KNTV in San Jose. Both men live in Napa, Calif. —Wines & Vines staff Wines & Vines Promotes Adams to Editor Position Andrew Adams
