Andrea Robinson is one of only 25 women in the world to hold the title of Master Sommelier and was the first woman named Best Sommelier in the United States. A three-time James Beard Award winner, author of four books, and award-winning television host, she is the creator, writer, director and host of The Swirled Cup, a documentary series exploring the people, places and ideas that transformed the modern world of wine, which debuted on Delta Air Lines in 2026.

She is the longtime Master Sommelier for Delta Air Lines and creator of The ONE wine glass.
Andrea’s wine mantra is:
“Wine doesn’t have to be expensive to be good–
…wine makes food taste better–
…and it’s fun!”
