| Until her late 20s, Beverly Crandon didn’t care about wine. “I grew up in a Guyanese household, and we rarely had wine with dinner,” she says. “There was this preconceived notion that our food didn’t pair well with wine.” But then an oenophile acquaintance introduced her to how fantastically geeky wine could be, and she got hooked. Here, a peek inside her kitchen. |
