The Fellows of the American Association of Wine Economists selected one new Fellow who was inducted at the 12th Annual AAWE Conference at Cornell University in Ithaca/NY, June 10 – 14, 2018.

Denton Marks, Professor of Economics, University of Wisconsin-Whitewater.
Ashenfelter’s Liquid Assets introduced him to wine auctions in the late ‘80s, and he began studying the economics of wine after trying some live and absentee bidding in Chicago and elsewhere. His research involves wine auctions, wine as a cultural good, the meaning of expertise, and the behavioral economics of wine consumers; and has appeared in several academic journals. His Wine and Economics: Transacting the Elixir of Life (Edward Elgar, 2015), an introduction to the economics of wine for students and the public, is used internationally in various oenological programs.

He is affiliated with the Wine Economics Research Centre at The University of Adelaide, the Robert Mondavi Institute Center for Wine Economics at UC Davis and Bordeaux Wine Economics.
