DETAILS: The wine industry, both in production and distribution, has long been a male-dominated industry. This has slowly been changing over the last few decades. This panel is made up of women who have pushed the boundaries and found ways to create their own places in the world of wine. As more and more women take up positions of respect and authority in the wine industry, it is changing the business of wine and how wine is consumed. Come and hear the background stories and thoughts from these women who have been at the forefront of making this change happen, who have pushed the boundaries, and who found ways to create their own places in the world of wine.
Join us on Monday, June 12, at the Falmouth Country Club to kick off Portland Wine Week with an insightful discussion on what it’s like being a woman in the wine industry and how these women claimed their spot in this evolving industry.
