Top 50 Wines is an online program that helps wine lovers discover the world's must-know wines in a curated list by region and style. It's a brilliant source of information, and it's completely free.

Each week you'll receive a new wine style delivered right to your inbox.

Top 50 Wines is perfect for expanding your horizons to have more fun buying wine in a restaurant, stocking a wine cellar, or narrow down a larger collection that has grown too big.

The program is for anyone who is interested in wine, but continues to miss out on the joys of wine due to lack of knowledge and confidence.

Who I am

My name is Ryan Crosbie, nice to meet you! I am a wine lover and wine professional that 'got the wine bug' in 2005. I have trained as a wine maker and fine wine retailer throughout California and in New York City.

I completed my first wine degree from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, then studied in Switzerland, France and Italy, and later obtained an Advanced certificate through the Wine and Spirits Education Trust. Today I run a wine club and travel program at a leading wine university, University of California, Davis.

I am forever a student of wine, and always looking to learn and teach what I know. For over two decades of wine study and work, I've come to realize that the wine world feels infinitely large and ever changing.

Why I created this program

I created this program to help today's wine lover expand their horizons beyond what they already know, starting with a fun, easy, and memorable way to explore the top wines of the world.

What we know about wine even a few years ago may no longer be relevant. Because of this, learning about the wine world is getting harder, not easier!

The winemaking methods and traditional styles of one region can change quickly, and the producers that were well known even a few years ago may shift focus or go out of business. Consumer preferences also change, and the industry is forced to adapt.

It's hard to learn about the history, present, and past at the same time and no one seems to be teaching it.

The contents of this program are formatted and written in a way that I would want to read from someone - if it existed. And if I would want to read it myself, I decided to just write it myself.

Who this program isn't for

• You are happy purchasing the same, or similar wines every time

• Your sources of wine already include many wine professionals

• You don't drink alcohol, or think wine is waste of grapes
