In this episode we welcome Inna Udartzeva who works for Villa Maria wines, one of New Zealand’s biggest wine companies. Inna is responsible for market development in Europe, and an expert on New Zealand as a wine country.

In the show we talked about the past, present and future of New Zealand as a wine country. We discussed the wine regions, terroir and the principle wines that are being produced in the country. We also tasted one of New Zealand’s iconic red wines, a 2014 ‘The Terraces’ by Esk Valley wines.
