Women make up the minority in the wine industry and women of color are even less represented, across all aspects of the wine sector. This panel will showcase voices from across the industry addressing race, feminism, intersectionality, and more. In their own words, these women of color will share their triumphs, failures, and everything in between in a way that will educate, inform, and entertain. The aim is to inspire a better understanding about what women of color have experienced in the industry and what they are doing to facilitate change now and in the future, because it's a great time to be a woman in the wine world.
