I’m Lawrence Francis, Host of Interpreting Wine the place to learn from thought leaders in the world of wine and marketing, welcoming you to the London Somm Special series. Across these 3 episodes I’ll exploring three very different London wine led venues, talking with wine buyers and sommeliers in each venue about their wine programmes and careers in the industry. If you are working in wine or would like to I’m sure there will be loads to relate to in these episodes. We kick things off at London’s iconic Davies and Brook in the company of sommelier Emma Denney. In an episode recorded at the end of Summer 2021, we hear her transition from her native New Zealand to working in Davies and Brook. 00:00:00 Intro Origin Story Studying to improve wine knowledge Sommelier Wine Education  Davies and Brook virtual tour The sommelier career The wine programme and culture Wine #1: Massican 'Annia' 2018, Napa Valley, USA 48% Tocai Friulano, 41% Ribolla Gialla and 11% Chadonnay https://massican.com/product/2018-annia/ Wine #2:Markus Altenburger, Blaufränkisch, Leithaberg, Burgenland, Austria 2017 https://markusaltenburger.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/ma-rot_2017_eng.pdf 00:00:00 Wine Chat If you know someone who would enjoy this episode please share the direct link: www.interpretingwine.com/454 If you really enjoyed it please leave the episode an iTunes review on the same link.
