Cool-Assed Wine People to Follow on Instagram

Matt Wilson
 
matt_wilson_gc
Chile
A photographer who manages to capture the exuberance and excitement of the wine industry in his work. His portraits of wine people lack the stuffiness and pretension of that holding-a-glass-of-wine-while-sticking-your-nose-in-it look. You will be gawking in awe and thinking about how you’d like to have wine dumped over your head–at some point in your life.

Andre Ribeirinho

Andre Ribeirinho holds the title of Chief Wine Evangelist at Addega. When he’s not at the job, he is pursuing his passions of food, travel and wine (of course!) and sharing his adventures with his lucky Instagram followers. When you look at his photos, you will love Andre’s attention to detail and the way he can capture a moment.

Portland, Oregon
Mary skillfully balances running a successful company, Vindulge, writing about wine and food, and being the mom to two ADORABLE twins. Mary’s Instagram is equally well-balanced: showing gorgeous photos of wine, mouth-watering photos of food and pictures of her beautiful family. You simply cannot look at Mary’s Instagram without getting a huge smile on your face.

André Hueston Mack

André Hueston Mack is a sommelier/designer/winemaker/street-artist who does even the smallest of things in a big way. You will delight in how André completely avoids the “wine snob” question by just living the alternative… and it’s awesome.

Eric Carucci
 
carucciwines

Eric Carucci and his wife, both self-taught winemakers, became a Wine Folly favorite when we heard his interview on Grape Radio. You can’t help but root for these two, who have dedicated themselves to pursuing their dream of making wine. On their Instagram, you’ll get a special look into Carucci Wines.

Los Angeles, CA
Adorable husband and wife duo, David and Tonya, created their site “Winery Explorers” to share their love of wine and travel. On Instagram, the pair post pictures of the places they’re going, the wine they’re drinking and the cute shenanigans their kids are getting into. You must follow this family who has dedicated themselves to following their dream of exploring wineries all over. The Instagram is as inspirational as it is sweet.

Winnie
 
winnieywp
Malaysia
A self-proclaimed “non-certified wine gob” (which, by her explanation is a cross between snob and geek), Winnie is a bottle shot whore. Her Instagram, which accompanies her blog called Wines Actually, is loaded with all the wines she’s drinking and what she is pairing with them. We are thankful someone is out there tasting everything, all the time.
