So this happened today out of the blue...
I got nominated for New Zealand Winemaker of the Year (!) 🍇
Thanks for the heads up, I was clearly not in the loop or oblivious to any signals 😆
Thanks to the panel for putting me in the mix with a fantastic list of NZ industry legends, I am very honoured.
I think I could win a new award for the darkest, most grim portrait photo, a rare selfie 📸. I had to do an urgent profile photo for something or other over winter, it was during a storm, with my phone on timer sitting on a block of wood 😊
Anyway, I'm really stoked and will have to find something special this week to celebrate 🍷
