Favourite grape or wine region?

I love a good Beaujolais, but recently I’ve been drawn towards Tempranillo and Garnacha.

Are you a dog or cat person? Or maybe neither. Maybe you have birds or turtles or an ant farm?

I love cats! My first cat was a street cat named Maximus, he bit a hole through my arm when I was three. Apparently.

Share with us something personal; what is your favourite book, movie or song?

Clandestine in Chile is a novelization of a documentary series by Gabriel Garcia Marquez where Miguel Littin, a Chilean filmmaker banned from his home country, disguised himself and sneaks in to Chile ten years after the military coup to document the realities of life under Pinochet’s dictatorship. Thrilling and heartfelt.

🦃 Thanksgiving


Thanksgiving pairing: Pastel de Choclo (Chilean shepherd’s pie)

You can think of Pastel de Choclo as a Chilean Shepherd’s pie, made up of a rich base of pino — ground beef, onions, boiled eggs, olives, raisins — topped by creamy mashed corn. This is a rich dish, classic comfort food, which I’ll be trying my hand at this Thanksgiving. What better wine pairing than the Echeverria Pinot Noir? A touch of spice and ripe red fruit alongside hints of chocolate and mocha, round and soft while still offering a lively acidity. This wine can be enjoyed on its own while preparing dinner, but also has body enough to complement Pastel de Choclo’s blend of sweet and savoury.
