Read (in French) the last articles written for the French Sommelier Magazine (p 20), focusing on the Australian "terroir" (pdf)

 

Partagez l'esprit du vin !

 

Wine is a part of our culture. There is a move here in Australia, and also all over the world, toward wine education. Australia provides wines which compete with outstanding foreign wines. Customers want to understand what "terroir" means even if they don't want to be overwelmed by information. They want to know more about the "robe", "the aromas", "the taste". As professionnals we should offer a service which reflects the quality of the wine. Moreover we have the obligation to respect the wine and the people who make it.

Enjoying wine for customers is not only pouring it in the glass, it also has to be served at the right temperature. Customers are likely to ask about the vintage, the variety, the area of production. Don't you think it should be strange not to be able to answer them about the wine you sell ?

As a highly experienced teacher, I provide a high standard of wine qualification for each one wanting to learn about wine. Moreover I really commit to share my passion of wine.

"Wines Solutions" provides solutions for everyone or every business whishing to learn more about wine:

Wine appreciation and teaching for hospitality schools wanting to offer their students a high level of qualification.

Wine solutions for restaurants (wine list, purchases, wine training)

Wine courses for wine lovers, beginners, advances (wine tasting).

Help for Australian winemakers or business export wanting to reach the french market (included French Polynesia and New Caledonia)

Help for travel agencies willing to offer their customers tours around the French or the Australian vineyard

 

I settled in Australia more than one year ago so that I could have a closer look at the Australian vineyard and the wine industry.


Having taught extensively in French Polynesia and in France before, I have a great understanding of the international wine market and I am able to provide a very high standard of courses at all levels.


I proudly support the Australian vineyard and
I have already learned and tasted a lot since I arrived in Australia and even before. I have had the opportunity to meet many winemakers and I just went on a trip to the South Australian vineyard. I now have a very good comprehension of Australian wines and their strong identity. Obviously, I know very well the French market with which I keep a close relation. I also have a great understanding of the other vineyards in the world.

 

 

 

Wine passion can leads to fabulous moments.
