Steve Heimoff

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Steve Heimoff is an American wine writer, a California wine expert,[1] the West Coast Editor for Wine Enthusiast Magazine since 1994, and previously from 1989 to 1994 a contributor to Wine Spectator.

In an open letter to the San Francisco Chronicle, Heimoff warned fellow critic James Laube of Wine Spectator that due to his position as a critic in a prominent magazine, he should be more cautious about branding wines as being tainted when most wine drinkers do not have the same level of sensitivity to detect anything wrong with those wines.[2]

Heimoff has published the books A Wine Journey along the Russian River, released in 2005, and New Classic Winemakers of California: Conversations with Steve Heimoff in 2007.[3][4]
