A few months ago, Sommelier Christine Tran consulted for the Burgerville chain in Vancouver, Washington. She created a menu that paired well-crafted American wines with Burgerville’s new gourmet and traditional menu offerings. She also paired craft beers as well. Wine News Magazine has just recently posted an article where she was interviewed via email. You may read her excerpt on Wine News Magazine’s website at this link:
