They have updated themes for their print and digital issues for 2026. “In Print, we entertain and empower readers with a mix of reported features, travel stories, and recipes. We also publish wine and spirits recommendations, which are selected in-house. From freelancers, we’re looking for previously unreported, meaty stories that go untold in other media outlets, such as profiles of innovative winemakers and other industry pros, colorful peeks into subcultures, opinionated essays, and more. We’re drawn to pitches with compelling narratives and human-interest angles. Review the 2026 print issue themes here.” For print, for April, the theme is, “The Travel Issue, High Elevation
For this year’s Travel Issue, we’re getting high—high elevation, that is. We’re focusing on high-elevation wineries, distilleries, and travel destinations up in the mountains. Some of the best wines in the world are produced at over 1,600 feet above sea level, and this issue celebrates them alongside culinary travel experiences like après-ski.” And: “What to pitch: Stories about high-elevation regions and their producers. Visually compelling is the name of the game for travel—with a side of rich culture and history.” They have other themes listed, as well. Rates for digital begin at $0.50/word; rates for print are unspecified. Pitching is via a form on their website (see guidelines). Details here.
