SPOTLIGHT ON
Michael McDonald, wine director, Aphotic, San Francisco, aphoticrestaurant.com
My childhood was a standard suburban upbringing in Fremont, California.
Chain restaurants, fast food and candy were always on tap. I’ve sustained my sweet tooth to this day, so it’s not uncommon for me to throw out candy descriptors like Red Vines and Swedish Fish.
What led me to wine?
I was working atand never looked back.
