Robin Goldstein

Robin Goldstein is an American author and food and wine critic. He is known for his books and articles questioning conventional wisdom in the food and wine industries, particularly a widely publicized exposé of Wine Spectator magazine, and for his writing on the Freakonomics blog. He is author of several books, including ''The Wine Trials'' (the world's bestselling guide to cheap wine), ''The Beer Trials'', and an upcoming book tentatively entitled ''A Defense of Fast Food''. Goldstein was also one of the subjects of ''Think Like a Freak'', the 2014 book by ''Freakonomics'' authors Steven Levitt and Stephen Dubner. He lives in Oakland, California.
Goldstein received a BA in Neuroscience and Philosophy from Harvard in 1998. He received a JD from Yale Law School in 2002. He graduated from the French Culinary Institute and the WSET wine program. Goldstein also reviewed restaurants for Fodor's Travel Guides in Italy, Mexico, Argentina, Thailand, and Hong Kong, and in 2005, founded the Fearless Critic series of restaurant guides, which was later acquired by Workman Publishing in New York and became a Workman imprint.
==Wine Spectator Award of Excellence controversy==
At the August 2008 conference of the American Association of Wine Economists in Portland, Oregon, Goldstein revealed that in a hoax exposé, he had won a Wine Spectator "Award of Excellence" for an imaginary restaurant, Osteria L'Intrepido (Italian for "the fearless tavern").〔blindtaste.com (What does it take to get a Wine Spectator Award of Excellence? )〕 With the help of his friend Giuliano Stiglitz, he created a fake website for the restaurant, submitted a reserve wine list of low-rated Italian wines along with the $250 entry fee, and won the award, which he sought to expose as a form of advertising. The hoax garnered worldwide press. Wine Spectator Editor-in-Chief Thomas Matthews responded on the magazine's web site.〔Matthews, Thomas, forums.winespectator.com (August 20, 2008) (Wine Spectator Has Been Scammed )〕
