I'm a sommelier from Kazakhstan, currently working and studying in France. I have an undying passion to explore every wine corner in this world and share it with you - one episode at a time.
I also specialise in marketing, communications, PR and events. Bringing in past experience in Human Ressources, I'm curios about people in wine and their stories.

Episode 18 Let's make Rioja great again
Episode 18: Let’s make Rioja great again with Peter Arijs 🇪🇸🍷
Rioja knows how to impress - my first visit to the region was in the fall time, and as soon as I saw all the purple, yellow, orange and dark green shades of the landscape, I fell in love ❤️
I tasted Rioja well ahead visiting the region, and my head was full of stereotypes of mature oaked reds.🍷The more time I spent in the region and more winemakers I met, my perception started to shift. But still I wanted to talk about this region and its recent transformations with someone who loves Rioja equally (or maybe even a bit more)!😉
Peter Arijs is responsible for Education within the Marketing team of Rioja DOCa, you may know him well as the face behind Rioja Academy 🍷 For me Peter is a person who knows every stone and every vine in the region, and I truly admire his passion for Rioja wine, and Spanish wine overall. Of course, I wouldn’t miss a chance to ask him for some blind tasting tips 🔥
If you want to explore the wines from Rioja and join Rioja Academy, follow them on socials @rioja, @riojawine, visit the page and indulge in this great Spanish wine region https://riojawineacademy.com/en/home 💪🏻🔥
