Cori Solomon, an award-winning writer/photographer in Los Angeles, often travels with her dogs in tow. Her blog, The Written Palette, features eclectic articles about her experiences traveling, dining, and discovering new wines, wineries, wine regions, art, and pets. Cori's background in real estate and art plays a role in her writing as she utilizes the art palette both visually and verbally. Cori looks for the story behind the restaurant, chef, winery, winemaker, or artist.
In addition to writing for her blog, The Written Palette, she is a contributor to The Alcohol Professor Big Blend Magazine, FWT Magazine, Rovology, Travel World International, and Wander with Wander. Cori has also been featured on several radio shows, including Big Blend Magazine and SoCal Restaurant Show. Cori founded LA Wine Writers, a group of approximately 50 seasoned wine writers who get together to learn more about wine and the winemakers behind a winery. Cori earned her WSET Level 2 Award in Wines and Spirits, the NASA American Wine Specialist Certification, and the NASA Spanish Wine Specialist Certification. Cori is the President of IFWTWA and a member of NATJA and SATW.
