Lindsay Wright - WSET and beyond

Send us Fan MailLindsay Wright walked into a wine store looking for a job when he was 20. He doesn’t boast enormous wine pedigree, though he has researched that his family has heritage stretching back to the Geelong and far off Champagne of many years ago – so it may very well be in his DNA. However, when Lindsay walked into that wine store on that fateful day, something happened, and it changed Lindsay’s life more or less for ever. Lindsay had caught the wine bug, or it could be said that the wine bug caught Lindsay. He has since devoted countless hours to perfecting the art of hospitality and fine wine retail whilst fine tuning his own wine knowledge through the WSET. Lindsay went so far as to attain the WSET diploma which is one of the most respected qualifications in the world of wine – but Lindsay is no ordinary person, and anyone who has per chance happened upon Lindsay in the fine wine establishment he manages will note his perfect blend of passion and respect for wine  coupled with fun and a down to earth enthusiasm. If you lucky enough to encounter Lindsay, it is downright fun and downright educational. Lindsay recently shared all of that passion and fun with me over a couple of bottles of wine in a conversation that was truly memorable. A massive thanks to Lindsay for joining me. Support the show
