We are so happy to welcome Dani Segelbaum, Vice President, Literary Agent, and Subsidiary Rights Director at Carol Mann Agency. We discuss how the best nonfiction is an experience, how it relates to platform and the real world, how sub rights tie in—and why it's so much easier to get Anti-AI clauses in contracts for books abroad. Dani Segelbaum joined the Carol Mann Agency in 2021 as a literary agent and subrights manager. She is interested in both fiction and non-fiction. Dani is seeking non-fiction titles with an emphasis on politics, women's issues, popular culture, and current events. Dani also loves memoir, narrative non-fiction, lifestyle, and cookbooks. In fiction, she is looking for literary and upmarket adult fiction including debut, historical, rom-coms, and women's fiction. In both fiction and non-fiction, Dani hopes to work with authors from diverse backgrounds to tell stories that are important to them. She loves compelling narrators and is drawn to writing that is voice-driven, highly transporting, and features unique perspectives and marginalized voices. Born and raised in Minneapolis, Dani is a graduate of Boston University's College of Communication where she studied journalism and political science. She has been a voracious reader for as long as she can remember. Dani began her publishing career as an editorial assistant at HarperCollins Publishers, focusing primarily on highly designed non-fiction titles. Dani spends her free time walking her Aussiedoodle named Dottie and trying new restaurants. Her guilty pleasures include cookbooks (seriously, she has way too many), reading the newspaper in the middle of the night, and baking dozens of delicious baked goods for friends and family (she does use the cookbooks).

Ever been curious about the claims people make about “clean wines”? In the same camp as “natural wines” and “better for you wines,” clean wines have no definition and often deploy misleading marketing to get you to buy their wines. They take advantage of the trend, particularly with Millenials, around a healthy lifestyle and spread misinformation in their marketing, according to sommelier and wine educator Erik Segelbaum. Explore the rationale behind the clean wine trend and how to read into their marketing messages on this episode of XChateau!Don't forget - you can support the show on Patreon to help us keep bringing you excellent wine business content!Detailed Show Notes:Erik's backgroundWas a chef in fine dining at the Park Hyatt PhiladelphiaAs he grew into wine, he stopped drinking for alcohol and more for flavorHe became a sommelier because it was more profitable than being a chefSOMLYAY (Erik's company)Does private events, education (including with the Smithsonian), a wine writer, private cellar consulting, and hospitality/wine list consultingHas done >300 private events in the past year, primarily virtualWrote an article called “Snake Oil for Sale: The Dirty Business of Clean Wine” (pg16) for the Sept / Oct 2021 issue of The Tasting Panel magazineThe impetus for the article - Erik always gets the same questions during consumer events around sulfites, natural/clean/healthy/“better for you” winesHe gets lots of ads using manipulative advertising around the winesDefinition of Clean WineIt's an invented word. There is no definition, no standards - it doesn't actually mean anythingImplies other wines are “unclean”Drivers of the clean wine trendMillennials have taken over as the dominant wine buying cohort. They like “healthy,” and the trend is playing to their preferencesCelebrity endorsements backing trend (e.g., Cameron Diaz's Avaline)Clean wine claims are not false but spreading misinformation and are “lying by omission”E.g., all wines are gluten-freeVegan - sometimes animal products (e.g., egg whites) are used in fining but not really put into wineOrganic - does not mean any chemicals, just no synthetic chemicals (e.g., sulfites are organic and a good thing - required to make wine otherwise, nature turns grape juice into vinegar)Additives - there can be bad ones (e.g., Velcorin, which is hazardous in large quantities, and Mega Purple, which adds color and sweetness)Need to distinguish between “industrially produced wines” and “commercially produced”Industrial wines are mainly on the bottom shelf of retail and are highly manipulated wines (e.g., use lots of additives)Commercially produced can be well-produced wines, even at a commercial scaleClean wine “obscures transparency”They often manipulate where the wines are produced (e.g., don't mention where the grapes are grown, only that they are produced and bottled in a specific place)Targets naive consumersAn excellent example of transparency - Ridge Vineyards - has ingredient labeling and all relevant details on the label
