Meet Claire
Behind every bottle of wine there’s a story to tell, a place to explore, a vineyard to discover, and people to meet.
What's your most memorable wine moment?
Visiting La Rioja and meeting a passionate winemaker, Pedro Balda. It was so enriching to drive around the plots and learn about the different soils. This unique experience taught me more than I could have learned from any wine book.
What’s your weeknight wine?
A Saumur, from Domaine Guiberteau for example, or a Vouvray. Chenin Blancs from the Loire are some of the most underrated and delicious white wines.
