The Wine Wise Team
Wendy Gedney
I have always been interested in wine since enjoying my first glass many years ago. However I knew very little about it and my drinking repertoire was very narrow. This all changed when I attended a wine appreciation course and became hooked on the subject of wine. Some years later and after much study, gaining qualifications and visiting vineyards in my beloved France and Italy, I am now teaching others this wonderful subject and have launched my business The Wine Wise Company.
Sarah Long
My love of wine is well established and it is now 10 years since I first started working in the wine trade. I am lucky enough to have visited many of the world’s most wonderful wine producing regions and to have tasted some amazing wines. I also lived in Chile for a time where I worked for a wonderful winery and this experience has helped me develop an enormous passion for South American wines. Since obtaining the WSET Diploma and becoming a WSET Tutor, I have joined Wendy at The Wine Wise Company and I am now enjoying teaching this fantastic subject to others.
Lena Reynolds
I am a relative newcomer to the world of wine. I became interested through my friendship with Wendy and after attending some of her wonderful courses, events and tastings I now have the bug! I am particularly fond of delicate vin doux naturel and champagne. Being Russian I was practically brought up on 'Sovetskoe Shampanskoe' which I enjoyed tremendously in my youth. I am improving my taste gradually by introducing Brut but secretly still enjoy Sec or even Demi Sec. I have now teamed up with the Wine Wise Company to support them in marketing and organising the visits, tours and corporate events
