My wine story is years in the making.
Let me help you create yours.
I curate wine programs and write about wine — for restaurants, brands, and people who want to drink better wine.
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 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 but never wanted the gatekeeping that usually comes with it.
Three doors
Wine Curation
I design wine programs, by-the-glass and by-the-bottle selections, and staff training for restaurants, markets, and hospitality brands — grounded in story, place, and sustainability.
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.
