Oliver onWine
After many years writing about, tasting and judging wine, I’ve created a place for conversation with the people whose ideas and actions have shaped the wine industry — and the wine you taste in the glass.
Oliver onWine gives you the opportunity to hear directly from industry leaders and shapers, many of whom typically avoid the public gaze and let their work speak for itself.
In this series, I’ll introduce you to winemakers, business leaders, owners, marketers and thinkers who are driving the evolution of wine. I don’t need to agree with everyone I speak to — and in some cases, we may strongly disagree — but the conversation is what matters.
Together, we’ll explore the key ideas behind wine: the craft, the science, the business and the culture — through the people shaping its future.
