For better or for worse, many lives have changed dramatically since the start of the pandemic last year. Between the struggles of the hospitality sector and the boom of wine retail—layered with blurred boundaries between home and work, evaporation of job security, and all-around uncertainty of the future—this chapter has been a challenging one for many, both professionally and personally. However, there is a silver lining and as we welcome restaurant re-openings and vaccine roll outs, it is growing more visible. This panel of wine industry professionals from both on- and off-trade will speak about their experiences and how we can best operate in this new normal.
