Introduction to the Speaker: Amy Tan
Amy loves grapes, barley, riceโฆ in a certain permutation. Drinking them is sobering. Paradox? Not. Amy has always been intrigued by these complex forms of beverages; the subtlety, remarkable nuances, layered textures and medley of flavours. They make her think. As the Wine Development Ambassador of South East Asia of the Moรซt Hennessy Wine Division, Amy enjoys her role in facilitating wine tastings and giving trainings. Armed with a WSET Level 4 in Wines and Spirits as well as being a Certified Specialist of Wine for the Society of Wine Educators, her objective is clear: to impart knowledge, spread the joy of wine appreciation, and share unique and fascinating brand stories. It will be a great opportunity to ask any burning wine questions you may have during the MasterClass!
Introduction to Cloudy Bay Winery
The Marlborough region produces roughly 85% of all wine exports of New Zealand. The Marlborough region is also famed for its Sauvignon Blanc(which some critics argue that the Best Sauvignon Blanc in the world comes from Marlborough). The wine production in this region started around the 1870โs, which is a relatively small timeframe, making its meteoric rise and growing popularity worldwide an even more astounding feat.
