As an adjunct to the GWF22 conference session featuring wineries from Denmark, Poland, and Patagonia this episode is co-hosted by Harper's Editor Andrew Catchpole. Joining us is his fellow Brit Simon Thorpe, CEO of Wines of Great Britain, sharing why it's the world's most noteworthy 'new' sparkling wine producing area. From across the Channel Burgundy's Etienne De Montille, justifiably famed for his native wines, tells us why he's not only entranced with his California project but why wines of Japan's Hokkaido island are worth exploring.

The roles of women in wine have expanded exponentially both in quantity and quality in recent years with initiatives for these deserving of analysis and further implementation. Co-Host Diana Hawkins, a winemaker from the US working in New Zealand, joins David in welcoming that country's NIcky Grandorge who's amongst her goals as Leadership & Communities Manager for its Winegrowers Association that of gender equity access. And making another welcome appearance in the Wine Future broadcast firmament is Laura Catena, MD of her family's eponymous Argentine estate and its Research Institute where she early on created hiring practices supportive of women.

Whether working with product logistics in production, distribution, or large retail sales, the issue of SUPPLY CHAINS is nothing new. However the implications of Covid have nudged this issue into the spotlight for every sector of the wine trade, not to mention that of the general public. For this episode, David's co-host is Alicia Towns Franken, VP of Archer Roose and a director for GWF22 NGO partner Wine Unify; their guests Sara Norell, a VP & Director at Sweden's Systembolaget and Claudio Cilveti, General Manager of Wines of Chile discuss a myriad of issues sharing both their problems and solutions.

Bloomberg's and The Wine Conversation podcast's Elin McCoy returns to welcome Moët Hennessy's Philippe Schaus as we discover how this CEO has overseen his company's many and diverse internal and external initiatives embracing sustainability with a special focus about its upcoming Living Soils Forum event in Provence France.
