Why start Bordeaux Hidden Gems?

The founder, Gigi is a DipWSET, IWS, an International wine judge (at various major wine competitions InternationalWineChallenge(IWC), MundusVini, OIV Wine Challenge and others) and an independent wine buyer.

During her formal academic wine studies she developed a strong passion for  boutique wineries. Since then, she has been actively involved in various aspects of the industry and has developed strong professional skills in wine education, buying, production and communication.

"To be able to share my knowledge of wine with others to help them have a better appreciation of wine is what I do.”

Bordeaux Hidden Gems is a special place that brings a different perspective to wine appreciation, drawing on a decade of industry experience. Through real-life stories, we delve into the heart of the wine world, uncovering current trends and hidden truths. We reveal the reality “Behind the Glam” of organic and biodynamic wines in the Bordeaux region. Our aim is to help wine lovers gain a deeper understanding and greater appreciation of these exceptional wines.

When Gigi isn't drinking or talking about wine, you're likely to find her helping out in the vineyard, discovering new hidden gems or judging at the wine competitions.
