Ep. 2213 McKenna Cassidy interviews Roza Zharmukhambetova | Next Generation

Welcome to Episode 1937, where we present the session recordings from the wine2wine Business Forum 2023. In today's episode, we delve into Get to know Right Bank Bordeaux with Georgie Hindle DipWSET and Claire Dawson Italian Wine Podcast is proud to be a media partner of wine2wine Business Forum and we are pleased to present this series of market focus sessions, recorded during the Forum held in Verona in November 2023. wine2wine Business Forum is an international wine business event, held annually in Verona, Italy since 2014. The event is a key annual reference point for wine producers and wine professionals from around the world, providing an opportunity to network, develop and expand their wine business worldwide. About today’s session A tasting of three wines that give an overview of Bordeaux’s Right Bank for those who want to know more about this famous region but don’t know where to start. A region as big as Bordeaux, with its renowned châteaux and myriad styles can often be a bit intimidating to newcomers and wine lovers alike. There are 65 different appellations covering 100,000 hectares with terroirs, vintage variation and estate styles all playing a part. This session aims to give the audience three options when it comes to choosing a bottle of Bordeaux based on quality and price; good (affordable), better (mid-range/medium priced), and best (money no object). Bordeaux wine is known for its longevity, but winemakers are increasingly looking to make wines in a more accessible way when young - the choice that’s therefore available caters to all tastes and spending levels. Young and ‘affordable’ wines often display primary fruit flavours, are crisp, juicy and fresh and are best consumed within two to three years of bottling. Mid-priced wines are often barrel aged and offer the potential for further maturation. They will present both primary and secondary fruit flavours with evidence of oak, present tannins, a smooth mid palate and long finish. Wines in this list are best consumed between 5-10 years following the vintage. The next level of wines up, are usually more intense and concentrated with powerful tannins, larger structures and long ageing abilities. They are aged longer in barrel and will continue to evolve well past 20 years of age.

Welcome to Episode 1931 in which host Victoria Cece interviews Margherita Sgubin this week on The Next Generation. They discuss the wines & cusines of Margherita’s hometown in Friuli Venezia Giulia, her aspirations following her wine studies in Burgundy, and her plans to implement her newfound knowledge in her family's winery business. Additionally, they share their perspectives on the wine world from the standpoint of their respective generations, Gen Z and Millenial.   More about today’s guest Margherita represents the third generation of Ferruccio Sgubin Winery in Collio, Friuli-Venezia Giulia. After completing her studies in Business Management & Administration, she started to work at her family’s winery, and it was during this time that she discovered her passion for wines. In fact, it was not written that she would have ended up there as she has always considered to keep different options open.  It was by taking part to different wine fairs and events, meeting with wine people, the sharing of experiences and opinions that triggered her curiosity and made her wanted to learn more. Therefore, a few months later she moved to France and started her MSc program in Wine Management in Burgundy. Spending one year of her life there was a priceless experience not only in terms of the knowledge gained, but also because of the opportunities of meeting other people from the industry such as producers, professionals, and other wine lovers. Learning about different point of views, perspectives, and approaches to wine was like putting all pieces together, and contributed to build her idea of wine and helped her to take awareness of the challenges related to the sector.  Even if the ultimate goal is that of returning home to work in her family’s winery, she is currently exploring opportunities to gain experience elsewhere, particularly in the fields of marketing and communication. She indeed envisions herself taking charge of conveying an authentic image of their company, making sure it reflects the values and philosophy behind it effectively.  Connect:  Website: https://www.ferrucciosgubin.it/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/margheritasgubin/?hl=it  LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/margherita-sgubin-5b3388252 More about the host: Victoria Cece is a food and beverage storyteller whose curiosity is somewhere deep in a bowl of pasta or a bottle of wine.
