As I pored over bottles on the shelves at Psychic Wines, I talked with one of the Silver Lake shop’s owners about spending time with winemakers abroad.

Neal Rosenthal, who founded the eponymous Rosenthal Wine Merchant in 1977 , describes the proposed tariffs as “calamitous.” “We are shipping as much wine as we can over the next several weeks in advance of the possible tariff increase,” he said, “and we are preparing to make internal company adjustments to cope,” including salary cuts and slashed margins. is no less freaked out.

“It would be devastating, to say the least,” Sylvester said. “We would need to lay off our entire sales and administrative staff. ... The fact that I could lose my business due to an arbitrary government decision and not due to my own failures is both maddening and heartbreaking.”Domaine L.A ., a natural-leaning wine shop on Melrose Avenue that opened in 2009. “I expect supply to tighten, as some importers will delay bringing in inventory as they wait/hope for the tariffs to pass. I’ll personally be able to afford fewer bottles for the shelves … [and] there will indeed be some sticker shock.”These proposed tariffs, if enacted, will affect a range of products, not just wine, which means a host of American businesses dealing in imported products are threatened.
