Dear Friends –

I am thrilled to announce that Rebecca Gibb MW has joined Vinous in the role of Editor, responsible for covering the wines of New Zealand and the Loire Valley. I have known Rebecca for many years and have always admired her extraordinary knowledge, writing skills and passion for wine.

Rebecca is an award-winning journalist, author of The Wines of New Zealand and one of only 409 Masters of Wine in the world. A former winner of the UK’s Young Wine Writer of the Year and the inaugural Louis Roederer Emerging Wine Writer of the Year, Rebecca became a Master of Wine in 2015. In a record class of 24 graduates, she was awarded the Outstanding Achievement Award and the Madame Bollinger medal in recognition of her outstanding tasting ability. Her work has appeared in numerous prestigious publications, including Decanter, World of Fine Wine, LUX and Wine Business International.

Please join me in welcoming Rebecca to Vinous. I am sure you are going to enjoy her insights into the wines of New Zealand and the Loire Valley as we continue to expand our coverage.
