· A photo caption with a May 31 Food article on a Congressional Wine Caucus wine tasting identified Rep. George Radanovich (R-Calif.) as Jay Buchsbaum of Royal Wine Corp. Also, Rep. Mike Thompson (D-Calif.) was incorrectly identified as a senator. A cropped version of the photograph appears here with corrected identifications.
