Wendy Lemlin has been a multi award-winning food and travel writer for over 20 years, as well as a highly experienced marketing writer and social media expert. She first visited and fell in love with Adobe Guadalupe in 2005, when it was in the vanguard of only a handful of wineries that existed in the Valle de Guadalupe at that time. That love and admiration has continued to grow throughout the years as Adobe Guadalupe has been honored with multiple awards for the excellence of its wines and the graciousness of its hospitality.

Tru Miller and Lulú Martínez, Bruma's winemaker, two women of Mexican Wine, share a very special story.

Tru was struck by a medal that Lulu always wears, a jewelry piece like a coin from Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands.

This piece is a representative insignia of the resistance to World War II. Tru, originally from that country, has a similar piece and was very pleased to find that two women, who make wine in Mexico, are holders of this historical insignia.
