It seems that women possess a natural sensitivity towards wine. When tasting, I’ve noticed that they consistently excel in identifying the visuals depicted by the wine, the stories it conveys, the intricacies it presents, and the emotions it communicates. I eagerly look forward to witnessing more Asian women featured on the 2024 WINWSA Award List, hoping that their contributions to the wine industry are recognised worldwide.
