Each of the 15-second to four-minute spots, which can be seen on deadlinehollywooddaily.com over the weekend and on speechlesswithoutwriters.com as of Nov. 26, is a riff on the theme "speechless." Hunter discovers her script has been outsourced to India...
...slice it, those are big numbers," says Ed Lehrman of Vine Connections, an importer of Argentine wine and Japanese sake based in Sausalito, Calif. "Sake is becoming more of a requirement as part of a complete program for distributors and major importers." Lehrman began as a wine connoisseur and marketer, tasting about 3,000 wines a year, before starting Vine Connections with wine partner Nick Ramkowsky and importing what has become a 12-brand sake portfolio, which accounts for about 30% of the company's sales. Lehrman says that sake's lack of tannin structure and its low acidity compared...
