In this episode, we are going to chat with Sanya Abhay, Sommelier at 67 Pall Mall Media who is also teaching the WineEd Wine Service workshop and WSET courses with us.
Sanya didn’t follow the typical route into the world of sommeliers. He worked as an electrician for 8 years and went through a quarter-life crisis and found his way into wine. After passing the WSET Diploma and getting the CMS qualifications, he is currently a Master Sommelier Candidate.
