I’m Lawrence Francis, Host of Interpreting Wine the place to learn from thought leaders in the world of wine and marketing, welcoming you to the MW Student Series series.

Across these 4 episodes exploring the personal and professional experiences of four current MW students, with the aim to shine a light on the varied roles each has within the wine industry. In each episode we’ll also be tasting a selection of wines that have a special significance to each of them.

We kick the series off in the company of Melissa Worrall. A native of Australia’s Barossa, Melissa has over 15 years’ experience in the industry, from cellar to sales, customer service to buying.

Having taken part in the Australian Wine Research Institute’s Advanced Wine Assessment Course where, rated for accuracy and consistency she achieved one of the highest scores. Melissa’s been a judge at the Barossa Wine Show.

Melissa holds a WSET Diploma in Wine and Spirits and is undertaking Stage1 of the Institute of Masters of Wine Program.

We taste three wines together, a kerner and a grenache, both from South Australian producers Chaffey Bros. And finish with a carmenere from Chilean producer De Martino. All three wines are available in the UK from Enotria and Coe or direct purchase from The Great Wine Co, links included below. Enjoy!

Welcome to Day one Session two of the Interpreting Wine Hospitality Summit 2020. We continue with wine and pay a visit to Quality Wines Farringdon to meet Gus Gluck. Possibly my favourite place to drink wine in London, not least down to Gus’ warm welcome, wine selection and intimate atmosphere, he led innovation in response to COVID-19 and was the first person I saw using taster sizes for Instagram live tastings. Gus reflects on the days and weeks before lockdown, when the writing was increasingly on the wall about the severity of COVID. Before he brings us up to date and discusses how Quality Wines has adapted and continued to operate without losing its soul. He talks about the challenge of converting former retail customers back to eating in and paying the premium for service. Gus gives a high-level review of innovation in the sector during lockdown discussing the can-do attitude he saw and continues to see. The impacts of lock-down on mental health at all levels in the industry in the wake of those businesses who closed their doors for good this year. We discuss the idea of no-shows in post-COVID world and the unseen cost of rent. Before looking ahead for his new business GB Wine Shippers and his clients.
