Indra conducts Premium Corporate Wine Experiences, drawing on 22 years of tasting, teaching and judging.
He has tasted Bordeaux and Burgundy dating back to the 1920s: all five First Growths, plus Grand Cru and Premier Cru reds and whites, most with more than two decades of age. Time turns these wines into rare treasures. Tannins soften to silk, bright fruit gives way to leather, forest floor and truffle, and a single glass becomes a moment you cannot repeat.
He has walked the vineyards of France, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, Chile and Argentina, and brings each region to life through engaging storytelling, practical insight and an approachable style that welcomes guests of every experience level.
