Kevin Zraly is an American wine educator and the founder of the Windows on the World Wine School, who has been described as America's most famous and entertaining wine teacher.[1] [2]
Career
[ edit ]
Between 1976 and 2001,[3] Zraly held the position of wine director for the Windows on the World restaurant, on the top floors of New York's 1 WTC World Trade Center , America's top-grossing restaurant.[4] Zraly was hired by Joe Baum whilst a 25-year-old wine salesman and self-educated oenophile with a bachelor's degree in education from State University of New York at New Paltz ,[3] and is since credited with introducing California wine to the American public,[5] as well as helping to pioneer the use of progressive markup on wine in US restaurants.[6] After the collapse of the World Trade Center in the September 11 attacks , the school relocated to the New York Marriott Marquis .[7] [8]
Zraly's book Windows on the World Complete Wine Course with its annual updates, is among America's best-selling wine books selling over 3 million copies worldwide. Kevin Zraly's American Wine Guide (2006) is the first book that deals comprehensively with all 50 states as modern wine-producing states.[5] Kevin's latest book, The Ultimate Wine Companion , was released in November 2010.
Awards and honors
