My wine story is years in the making.

Let me help you create yours.

I help beverage brands find their footing in LA, and write the stories that connect people to what's in their glass.

Brand strategy. Storytelling.

Hi, I’m LaShea

I'm LaShea Delaney — a Los Angeles wine professional, writer, and consultant. I spend my days repping wine to restaurants and shops and helping beverage brands find their footing in the LA market, and my nights writing about the people and bottles that make the industry worth paying attention to. My work has appeared in Wine Enthusiast, VinePair, and Los Angeles Magazine, and I write Lavern's Fine Wine, a newsletter for people who love wine and want to learn more about the culture, people, and ideas shaping the future of food and beverage.

Three doors

LA Market & Brand Development

I help wine and beverage brands find their footing in Los Angeles — market strategy, account development, and brand representation grounded in relationships, storytelling, and place.

Writing & Content Services

Wine, food, and hospitality copy that sounds like a person, not a press release — newsletters, menus, brand voice, and editorial content for teams who need someone who actually knows the industry

Lavern's Fine Wine

My newsletter on the wine world — trade insider stories, honest bottle recommendations, and profiles of the people reshaping the industry.

Good wine has a story. Let's find yours
