Today, I opened a new chapter in my professional life and started working at Château de Bousval as Commercial Director, in the heart of beautiful Brabant Wallon, not far from the Lion of Waterloo.

A big thank you to the Bousval team for such a warm welcome — and to the weather gods for an extraordinarily beautiful first day. It honestly felt like coming to work in paradise. 🌿☀️🍇

I couldn’t have imagined a finer place to continue my journey in the wine sector. I’m especially looking forward to learning more about biodynamic viticulture and wine, and to experiencing the coming harvests at Bousval.

Cheers to new beginnings, new discoveries and, of course, good wine. 🥂

Follow along if you’re curious to discover more about wine in Belgium, biodynamic wine and Château de Bousval.

And remember… follow the rabbit. 🐇😉
Cheers! 🍷

Today, I said goodbye to my life at CANZA. ❤️

Leaving a job is never just about changing workplaces. It’s about saying goodbye to people who became part of your journey.
Together, we faced challenges, celebrated successes, and built something we’re all proud of.

We transformed our commissary, strengthened our operations, reduced inventory discrepancies and created partnerships that made a real difference. None of it would have been possible without an amazing team.

Working across cultures taught me one of the greatest lessons of my career: leadership begins with empathy. Listening before judging. Understanding before deciding. Respecting different perspectives. That’s how trust is built.

Today, my team gave me a farewell I’ll never forget. Their kindness, appreciation, and friendship mean more than words can express.

To my incredible team—thank you for your trust, your resilience, your hard work, and all the memories we’ve created together. Everything we achieved, we achieved together.

As one chapter closes, another begins. I’m excited for what’s ahead, but I’ll always carry this experience with me.

❤️ Forever grateful!

Last evening, I hosted the CANZA Wine Club for the very last time at Club Canada in New Delhi.

As I prepare to leave my role as General Manager of the commissary serving 25 embassies and international organisations, I will soon be starting a new chapter in Brussels.

Building the Wine Club in India has been one of the most meaningful parts of my time here. It came with unique challenges — sourcing and selecting wines in a very different market — but also with the rewarding opportunity to introduce our members to discoveries and share a genuine passion for wine.

Over time, the club grew into a real community. Each session was designed to offer a different experience: from masterclasses featuring premium wines to more informal tastings, always with a focus on learning, discovery, and exchange.

For this final edition, I wanted to create something closer to a professional trade tasting format, giving participants a “wine fair” experience at the Canadian High Commission’s ground. The feedback sheets and level of engagement were particularly valuable, and will support my successor in future selections and buying decisions.

What I value most is seeing how curiosity and enthusiasm for wine kept growing within this international community.

Creating a Wine Club in Delhi was a personal goal before arriving here — and closing this chapter with such engagement feels like a full circle moment.

Cheers on to the next chapter in Brussels.

Happy to bring Turkish wines to India— Paşaeli 🍷🇹🇷🇮🇳
Crafted in the sun-drenched vineyards of Western Turkey, Paşaeli Wines reflect a beautiful balance of tradition and innovation. With roots in the Aegean region, these wines showcase indigenous Turkish grapes alongside international varietals, offering elegant, expressive profiles that truly stand out.

India’s relationship with alcohol is evolving. While consumption still comes with cultural and regulatory complexities, there’s a clear and growing curiosity—especially when it comes to wine. More consumers are exploring beyond spirits and beer, leaning into wine for its experience, sophistication, and global connection.

Interestingly, while parts of the world are reducing alcohol intake, India is moving in the opposite direction. The market continues to expand, drawing global attention. A strong example: major French investments—reportedly around €100 million—are being directed into Rajasthan’s wine and alcohol sector, signaling long-term confidence in India’s growth story.

Despite challenges in distribution and regulation, the momentum is undeniable. India isn’t just opening up to wine—it’s developing a taste for it.

Here’s to new beginnings, new regions, and new palates discovering something extraordinary. 🍇✨

✨ Uzbekistan is a hidden jewel waiting to be discovered.

A land filled with history, whispers of 1001 stories, and streets that hum with life.
Right now, Bukhara is hosting a biennale not to be missed by gastronomy lovers “Recipes to the Heart.” 💖

The theme draws from an old local tale:
Once, a prince fell in love with an ordinary girl. He tried to hide his feelings and grew ill. When the great Ibn Sina (Avicenna) checked his pulse, he called out the names of Bukhara’s districts and when he mentioned the girl’s neighborhood, the prince’s heartbeat quickened. 💓
Ibn Sina declared it was love and prescribed marriage… and a special plov recipe to restore the prince’s strength.

So this Biennale is not only a celebration of gastronomy, but also of emotion, connection, and the flavors of the heart.

The air is rich with the scent of samsas and plov, and every restaurant is alive with laughter. 🍽️

In this Muslim-majority yet secular country, the Slavic influence lingers from the music to the glasses raised in toasts. 🥂

Uzbekistan’s wine culture is looks like it’s growing fast, blending international grape varieties with local flair. I’ve tried a few so far — nothing remarkable yet — but I’d love your tips!

🍷 Any local Uzbek wines I should hunt down while I’m here?

🍷✨ A Memorable Evening at the Turkish Wine Tasting Event with Delhi Wine Club!🇹🇷🍇

We had the pleasure of exploring exquisite wines from renowned Turkish wineries together with the members of the Delhi Wine Club on December 18th at the Delhi Park Hotel: Heraki, Midin, Vinolus, Kastro Tireli, and Doluca wines were poured to our glasses during the master class and dinner. The tasting featured indigenous grape varieties such as Bornova Misketi, Öküzgözü, Boğazkere, and Kerkus—each offering a unique flavor profile that delighted our palates. 

Special thanks to the former president, , and current president, , for organizing this exceptional event. Their dedication brought us together to « Connect » through the world of wine. 🙏🍷

Though many of the members have traveled to Türkiye, these wines were a delightful discovery for all. The evening was filled with enjoyment, culminating in lively dances set to Turkish music—a perfect blend of culture and camaraderie. 🎶💃

Here’s to more such enriching experiences with Wines! 🥂
