NEWS EDITOR Richard Barnes Editor-in-chief Vinexpo Bordeaux 2015 PROGRAMME WEDNESDAY 17 TH JUNE Yes It’s The Wine… But It’s More About The People There is perhaps no more “human” product on earth than wine or fine spirits. When moving from stand to stand at Vinexpo, the story is always the same, and always different. It’s always the same from the point of view that the story of each individual wine or spirit is the intimate story of a person or a family… a vision, and an exploit. Thus, each one is as different, original and enthralling as the people themselves. It’s a labour of love, and of course as we look deeper, we understand that every person playing a part in the production of the product adds just a little bit of their soul each time. The same is true for the sommelier – again a role that is not just about having an intricate knowledge of the essences that make up the product, but more about understanding the person facing them at the table: the consumer. Again, as so beautifully outlined by Paz Levinson – Best Sommelier of Americas (Page 7), who says that for her, what’s important is communicating what she has learned. Indeed, she says she loves the contact with the client at the restaurant, because we never know what questions the customer will ask. This humble attitude is, I believe, what moves people – consumers – to truly appreciate, or even love wine. It’s all about “getting it right at the right time, and making it special”. That’s what Vinexpo is all about. L’Atelier Food & Wine by Gault & Millau Organised by Vinexpo (registration required) Location: L’Atelier Food & Wine, Hall 1 11:00 am – 11:45 am.
