Nina Cerullo

Wine Workshop

I am hugely passionate about wine and am happiest when I have an audience. Since 2002 I have been presenting, and although I try to keep things informal, I love the opportunity to debate the benefits or pitfalls of soil types, climates, alcohol levels, flavours, food matches or frankly anything which fires my vinous passion.

I lived in Italy for many years where my wine knowledge blossomed.  I still have a home there and follow several local vineyards and wineries in Campania. I also have the benefit of my father living just outside Bordeaux. During frequent visits I have the opportunity to follow weather patterns, vine conditions, helping out in the vineyard, winery and cellar.

For many years I worked for British Airways which gave me the invaluable opportunity to tour the worlds wine regions.  I have visited wine regions in Argentina, California, Canada, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand along with many of Europe's top wine spots.

I attend seminars and trade tastings when ever I can, and back this up with as much reading as is possible.

My business, Wine Workshop of which I am the main presenter, specialises in wine courses, for corporate and private customers, food and wine matching events and corporate and private wine tastings.  I feel comfortable with most of the wine regions of the world, but if I had a specialty it would be Italy, and France.

I also consult over several private cellars.

I am hugely excited and enthusiastic about English wine, and when I win the lottery I will start my own vineyard and make world class sparkling wine here on the South Downs!
