He expanded his winemaking training with vintages in Burgundy with Chateau Demessey, the Rhone Valley with Domaine Francois Villard and the Douro Valley with the Fladgate Partnership (Taylor’s).

The processes they use (and avoid) have grown from experience and understanding with the aim of making wines in a way that provides sensory delights that are truest to region and variety.
