The wine world is evolving—women are stepping up as winemakers, sommeliers, and journalists, blending expertise with sensitivity and redefining the conversation.
Empowerment isn’t about mimicking men; it’s about owning a unique, feminine voice in wine—being moved by it, speaking differently, and still being absolute professionals.
The real shift comes when a pregnant sommelier can spit wine without judgment, and motherhood no longer sidelines women from tastings or fairs.
“There are too many women here,” some still say. But the truth is, women have always been part of wine’s story—and their future in it is stronger than ever.
So when the waiter asks, “Will the lady also have wine?”
I smile and say: “Yes, more than the gentleman.”
