NO1 Family Estate

NO1 Family Estate only produce Methode Traditonnelle wines. Across the range these wines are faultless, complex and expressive. The Cuvée Adele 2013 (80%Ch, 20%PN) is an exceptional example of where New Zealand sits on the world stage of sparkling wine. At the top!

My full time role is at AUT University where I lecture Wine and Beverages and related topics to students from NZ and around the world at the School of Hospitality and Tourism. The School operates two restaurants where the students - under the guidance of skilled chefs and front of house people - get to showcase their culinary and hospitality skills. Some of our finest NZ chefs have passed through these halls It is my great hope that some of NZ’s finest Sommeliers will one day be able to say the same. #sommlife #sommmentor @autuni @autcareers #lecturer #schoolofhospitalityandtourism #nzwine #cheflife
Somm Mentor! It was my privilege this weekend to travel to Wellington and work with a great bunch of professional Sommeliers on improving their knowledge and techniques. Thanks to Maciej for arranging, and for providing the venue. So gratifying to see these New Zealand Sommeliers working to better their professional skills and ability to bring fine wine to their customers and clients. Congratulations to you all. Mentoring is one of my absolute favourite parts of being a Master Sommelier. #sommlife #mastersommelier @noblerotwinebar @nz_sommelier #winementor #sommelier #nzwine #payitforward #wellington @wellingnoms
