winemaker

A wine critic friend of mine asked for an interview with the winemaker but was told it was “inconvenient.”

Françoise, the winemaker at Araujo at the time, was hugely instructive.

Both women have earned “Winemaker of the Year” accolades from various organizations.

The wine world tends to glorify the winemaker when really it takes a team of hard-working people to tend vineyards and make wine.
