This episode I am talking with the first and only Master of Wine from India: Sonal Holland MW. We are talking very much about her journey on the Master of Wine programme and how she managed to do all this from India as her base. If you are looking for inspiration to follow a new path or to studying the MW yourself, this could be the inspiration you need. We are also looking at the rapidly changing wine scene and culture in India. This is Part 1 with Sonal. Next week Part 2 we will dive into the wines of India.
