With Donald Trump set to take office in January, many wine industry folks are wondering what tariffs the president-elect might impose and how they could affect the industry. This time around, we have the benefit of experience—Trump's first term—to guide our thinking. Is it all doom and gloom, or is there any hope on the horizon?

We enlisted three experts to share their opinions: Bertrand Leulliette, a leading Burgundy expert and the founder and president of importer Bertrand's Wines; Michael Laudenslager, the General Manager and Wine Director of New York City Italian restaurant Peasant; and Miguel de Leon, the wine director of New York City's Pinch Chinese.
