PRAISE FOR WINE. ALL THE TIME. THE BOOK. 

“Can I just be Marissa, please? I want to be hilarious and sexy and smart and insanely knowledgeable about wine.”
—Mindy Kaling, New York Times bestselling author of Why Not Me?

“Funny as hell … Wine. All The Time. breaks down one of the most exclusive-seeming concepts and industries of our time, making it more approachable and inviting in anyone who cares to participate.”
—Leandra Medine, founder of Man Repeller

“For ‘beginners,’ [Wine. All the Time. is] a fun start to the insanely beautiful and rewarding world of natural wine. For ‘mediums’ (like me) it's a great refresher and enlightener. For ‘experts’ it will remind you about what wine should be: freaking fun times! No boring bourgeois sleeper chapters … super funny and inspiring and very important to the impending food and wine revolution!”
—Eric Wareheim, actor, comedian and creator of Tim & Eric Awesome Show

“Well written, engaging, and crazy funny.”
—Michael Cruse, Cruse Wine Co. and SF Chronicle's Winemaker of the Year 2016

@MARISSAAROSS

Dear god, grant me the No Fucks Given of Fausto Cellario 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 @podericellario_wines @selectionaturel @amyatwoodwine #freeyourglass #autogrillgang
I now only aspire to be as happy as @swimmyd dancing with Danilo Marcucci to songs from a 1990’s wedding reception. #freeyourglass #autogrillgang
TOLD EM DRINK IT UP, IT’S A FEAST 🍾🍷🥂 @selectionaturel @amyatwoodwine #freeyourglass #autogrillgang #MARwines
Tastes like Kendrick’s “The Spiteful Chant” with notes of 2 Chainz’ “Watch Out” and middle fingers in the air. 🍷🌹🔥 JK #rosstest of the Vini Conestabile rosé vermouth because it tastes like a calm, warm, shallow ocean of watermelon, grapefruit, lemon, and bay leaves. Oh, right, and because I can. #freeyourglass #autogrillgang
The first wine I ever had a small hand in making, and one of the main characters in my essay for @bonappetitmag’s August issue: the Vini di Giovanni “Ciliegiozzo” Ciliegiolo frizzante. Yes, I cried a little. DRINKING IT WAS LIKE HEARING “HOW FAR I’LL GO” FROM MOANA FOR THE FIRST TIME, OK! ❤️😭❤️😭❤️ @amyatwoodwine @selectionaturel #freeyourglass #autogrillgang #MARwines
Spring at Vini di Giovanni. 🌾 All the sheep are on the wine labels so now it’s just kittens. #freeyourglass #autogrillgang
Doesn’t count as a trip to Italy if you don’t take at least one photo of a vividly colored strada, dude. 🏫 Verona at dusk.
Judging by my phone, I came to Italy strictly on The Second Unofficial Filippo Rizzo Fan Club President business. (I’m assuming there is already one official & unofficial fan club.) This work mostly involves drinking lots of @lamorescavini Rosato— a most perfect spring wine of fluffy strawberry shortcake made of ground freesia & drizzled in ruby red grapefruit juice— and forcing Filippo to take photos with you. IT’S HARD WORK BUT SOMEONE HAS TO DO IT. 🤷🏻‍♀️💁🏻‍♀️ @selectionaturel @amyatwoodwine #MARwines #autogrillgang 📸 @winelinkitaly
Totally normal looking-out-the-window stuff. @vinnatur_org
I would say “Ceppa Girl” but apparently “ceppa” is slang for dick here, but also I AM kind of a dick so maybe it’s perfect? 🤷🏻‍♀️ Hopped in to pour for Ceppaiolo at @vinnatur_org today. I once did a horrible job hoeing weeds in the vineyard for 30 seconds so I obviously know everything & can explain it fluently in Italian. 💁🏻‍♀️ Nah, but for real this goes back to what I said earlier— I come to the fairs for my natural wine fam, and that includes helping producers I love wherever & whenever I can.🍷🥂 One hectare, Trebbiano & Sangiovese. Special stuff. @selectionaturel @amyatwoodwine #freeyourglass #autogrillgang
