Write for This Day in Wine History

This Day in Wine History is the world’s largest wine history website — a growing archive of the moments where wine crosses paths with the rest of human history. Our work comes in three forms: This Day entries covering all 365 days of the year, shorter Articles, and In-Depth pieces built on original research and academic citations.

We are always looking for writers who love both wine and history and can tell a well-sourced story well. Whether you are a wine professional, a historian, an academic, or a serious enthusiast with a talent for research, we would like to hear from you.

What we look for

  • Command of your subject, with a commitment to accuracy and sourcing
  • Clear, engaging prose in a straight, unfussy voice
  • Original angles — the overlooked people, places, and events where wine shaped history and history shaped wine
