Episode 8: Wine Becomes Art – Alie Shaper - a podcast by Heritage Radio Network

As the founder of Brooklyn Oenology, Alie Shaper has taken the centuries old wine concept of terroir and modernized it within the Brooklyn environment. Alie is a graduate of Engineering from Cornell University which is where her passion for wine was ignited. After graduating Alie moved to San Jose as a military contractor to work on various projects. She soon returned to New York in pursuit of the wine industry. In 2010 Brooklyn Oenology opened a tasting room in Williamsburg, stocking food and beverage treats from the New York region. Ali is unique in the humane way that she approaches her wines - she has very much taken something from the old world and made it comfortable within its surroundings.
