Bhutan Revisited: Michael Juergens and the Rise of a Himalayan Wine Dream

Send us Fan MailLong time listeners of the show will remember back to Season 1 Episode 24, the story of the adventurous Michael Juergens and the founding of the Bhutan Wine Industry. Well, ladies and gentlemen - Michael is back, and he’s back with a bang to give both you and me an update on all things regarding the development one of the world’s most exciting emerging wine scenes. Michael has been busy, from managing the Bhutan Wine Company's first release, and gathering support for the project, including welcoming Jancis Robinson onto the Company board as a consultant, to ensuring he doesn’t lose sight of his mission or of his passion for Bhutan. Michael brings enormous amounts of color to all his conversation and he had me in stitches for the majority of this interview. So, sit back, imagine yourself going on an adventure to the far away Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan, and then make a little room for some Orange County colour – Michael’s is one heck of an adventure, and this was one heck of a conversation. Bhutan Wine Odyssey: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Xf4waQ8uUk A huge thanks to Michael for joining me. Support the show
