Falling on 8 March, International Women’s Day (IWD) is an opportunity to celebrate and showcase the work and achievements of women in all fields.
The theme for this year’s IWD is #EmbraceEquity, to highlight the difference between equity and equality. The aim is to encourage people to question why equal opportunities aren’t enough – and can, in some instances, be exclusionary, rather than inclusive.
In terms of the wine world, it is traditionally a male-dominated industry. But we’ve gone on a mission to find the women winemakers that are holding prominent positions and making a difference.
We’ve found light, delicate drops from the English countryside, a full-bodied red from sisters in Spain and a fabulous fizz from a celebrity trio – all with extremely talented women at the helm.
These inspirational oenophiles are paving the way for more women to join the winemaking ranks, so, without further ado, read on for some of our favourite reds, whites and rosés created by women.
