Publisher's Synopsis
This book is the collection of insights from the XChateau Wine Business Podcast episodes from 2020 and 2021.
As two Master of Wine students, having this level of detail and industry examples from all over the world is what Peter wishes he had and hopefully prepares Robert well for Papers 4 (the Business of Wine) and 5 (Contemporary Issues) of the MW Theory Exam. Given the general lack of content around the business of wine, this data and information would have been invaluable for studying for the WSET Diploma as well. Though it is extremely useful for students, including Wine MBA students, studying the business of wine, it will also be a great resource for anyone working in the wine industry and wanting to gain deeper insights into many of the fascinating corners of the industry. Learn from industry luminaries like Laura Catena (Catena Zapata), William Kelley (The Wine Advocate), Eric Levine (Cellar Tracker), Heini Zachariassen (Vivino), Jane Anson (Decanter, janeanson.com), Damien Wilson (Sonoma State University), and many, many more!
