Last week was a milestone moment for Elizabeth & Wine.
I hosted a Wine Safari on the rooftop of BNY Mellon for 80 guests, and for the first time, I wasn’t leading solo.
I was joined by two incredible women in wine:
Corinne Seely, winemaker at Exton Park, once Bordeaux’s youngest female winemaker
Kirsty Woodgate, fellow wine expert and long-time industry friend
Together we delivered my most ambitious tasting yet: 13 wines celebrating trailblazing female winemakers from across the world. From Sam O’Keefe at Lismore (South Africa) to Fang Wang’s Chinese Riesling, Alix Vonderheyden’s Margaux to Vanya Cullen’s standout Australian Cabernet, every glass told the story of the woman behind the bottle.
Corinne led the sparklings, Kirsty hosted the reds, and I poured the whites a seamless, high-energy collaboration with beautiful food, stunning views… and not a drop of rain.
This was a true milestone: Elizabeth & Wine trusted to deliver a flagship rooftop event for BNY Mellon, and the first time as a team.
Would your guests remember a night like this? I think so.
