1. The Curator
The content is curated by Mark Lenzi, a highly certified wine and spirits professional based in Massachusetts. He is the owner of Franklin Liquors and the co-host of The Wonderful World of Wine (WWW) educational podcast and blog. He holds numerous advanced industry titles (including CSW, CSS, and CWAS) and uses Flipboard to track the global and domestic beverage trades.
2. Format & Purpose
This link is part of Lenzi's long-running daily curation series. On Flipboard, he uses the "magazine" layout as a digital news aggregator. Instead of being a single article, it serves as a daily dashboard or "snapshot" that brings together the most important stories, press releases, market data, and trend reports across the alcohol industry for June 11, 2026.
3. What the Content Covers
While the exact list of articles on this specific day's dashboard constantly updates with the day's breaking news, Mark Lenzi's daily Flipboard collections generally compile 10 to 20 articles from major global publications (such as Wine Enthusiast, The Drinks Business, VinePair, and Food & Wine).
The aggregated stories typically focus on:
- Market Trends: Updates on industry shifts, such as consumer spending habits, inflation impacts, or the rise of Ready-to-Drink (RTD) canned cocktails and non-alcoholic beverages.
- Wine & Spirits Education: Deep dives into winemaking techniques, region classifications, distillery news, or vineyard technology.
- Culture & Lifestyle: Travel guides for wine regions, celebrity/athlete alcohol brand reviews, and advice on food pairings.
It is essentially a daily news digest built for liquor industry professionals, bartenders, sommelier students, and wine enthusiasts who want to see what is trending in the beverage world on June 11, 2026.
