Wine columnists Karen Page and Andrew Dornenburg are away this week and will return next week.

Almost a year and a half after they began writing a weekly column for the Post's Food section, they will soon reduce that frequency because of other commitments. Starting in mid-September, Dornenburg and Page's column on the relationship between wine and food will appear monthly to accommodate their book projects: a publicity tour for "The Flavor Bible" and research for their next book, "On Mastering Wine."

Starting Oct. 1, Dave McIntyre, currently the wine writer for Washingtonian magazine, will begin writing three or four columns a month for the Post's Food section. They will include explorations of wine terminology, profiles of local movers and shakers and, of course, tastings and recommendations.
