Wine programs for 60 of the country's top restaurants. 20 Michelin stars. 30 Black Pearl diamonds. And a mission to spread wine as a social language.But here's what's different: 85% of his students aren't sommeliers or industry pros. They're doctors, lawyers, engineers, finance workers. People discovering wine as a hobby. As part of life. As something playful and accessible, not technical and dogmatic.Yang Lu is proving that wine isn't about credentials or complexity. It's about memories. Emotion. Connection.He's not teaching wine. He's teaching people how to fall in love with it.This is how you build a wine culture from the ground up.Subscribe for more conversations with the people shaping hospitality and wine
