Your Business Journey with Isabella Venour - Isabella talks with Anoushica Matthews.
In this week's episode, Isabella is joined by Anoushica Matthews.
Anoushica is the founder of Sweet Spice Wines.
Sweet Spice was founded by South Londoner Anoushica Matthews, being of mixed heritage, and often the only person of colour in many wine spaces, she saw it necessary to address the lack of POC representation and engagement in the wine world.
Anoushica found her passion while working at the Michelin-Starred restaurant, The River Cafe, where wine was such a big part of the culture. It wasn’t until she traveled to Tuscany that she truly got the wine bug. Seeing the vines, tasting from the barrels, and listening to producers talk with such passion about the intricacies of winemaking, inspired her to pursue it seriously.
Anoushica has now been working in the UK wine industry for six years, currently running Sweet Spice alongside her role in the Liberty Wines Sales Team where she looks after the South London area. In this time she has also completed her WSET level 4 and has been lucky enough to have spent time in Spain experiencing a vintage first hand.
