      Working in a Michelin starred environment gives you a benchmark for standards within the wine industry. This role allowed me to focus on my European wines, develop my palate through industry tastings and exhibitions and also consumer shows. Responsibilities included stock control, leading the wine services, staff training and driving the sales of this 300 bin wine list.
