Carolyn Covington is a WSET Diploma in Wines graduate, wine influencer, and educator, as well as the founder of the American Wine Girl™ brand. She hosts engaging, educational wine tasting events throughout Virginia and across the U.S., and partners with wine brands and regions around the world to promote their stories through digital media.
Carolyn launched her blog, American Wine Girl, in 2018 as a creative outlet to share her love for wine. What began as a passion project aimed at introducing millennials to wine has since evolved into a successful platform focused on wine education, travel, and lifestyle. Her blog features in-depth wine travel guides to global wine destinations such as Mendoza, South Africa, multiple Italian regions, and beyond.
Before becoming a full-time content creator and consultant, Carolyn spent four years working in the Virginia Wine Industry as a wine educator. She now collaborates with wineries and regions worldwide—highlighting travel, education, and storytelling through social media and content marketing. Some of the brands she’s worked with include Chianti Classico Consorzio, Champagne Taittinger, Wines of Argentina, Coravin, and Champagne Laurent Perrier.
A recent graduate of the WSET Diploma program through the Capital Wine School in Washington, DC, Carolyn continues to share her expertise with a growing audience. Her content blends formal education with a fun, modern approach—offering wine hosting tips, food and wine pairings, unique bottle recommendations, and a behind-the-scenes look at wine regions around the world.
