About Me



I’m a Reader, Writer, Eater, Traveler.

Visit portfolio my site here: http://www.marcygordon.com

I am the Founder and Executive Director of Writing Between the Vines -- Vineyard Retreats for Writers -- A literary arts foundation providing residencies for writers on vineyard estates around the world.

I’m a freelance travel writer, published in a variety of publications, and the Forbes Travel Guide Corespondent for Napa and Sonoma.

My background is in consumer marketing and I worked to launch and position several start-ups including Travelocity and OpenTable. My love of travel and writing led me to work in publishing and I was co-editor of the Authentic Italy guidebook series for the Touring Club of Italy.

Come for the Wine is about the local wine scene in Napa and Sonoma and chronicles my travel experiences in wine regions around the world. In my view, wine is the very essence of a place, it’s truly travel in a bottle.

I am a member of the Wine Tourism Advisory Board. I have appeared as a speaker at the North American Wine Tourism Conference in Napa 2011 and Sonoma 2012, and at the International Wine Tourism Conference in  Portugal 2011, Italy 2012, and Croatia 2013. I also spoke as part of a panel session at the 2013 Wine Bloggers Conference in Penticton.
