Meet the wine world's leading experts nose to nose!
Chris Scott
New Zealander Chris Scott first came into contact with the wine industry as a student in the 1990s winter pruning in Canterbury in New Zealand's South Island. He graduated with a first class honours degree in engineering and left the vineyards behind him to work overseas.
Chris moved to England in 2001. In 2002 he began studying wine with the Wine & Spirit Education Trust and in the same year set up ThirtyFifty, the wine tasting company. Chris now heads up a team of 12 wine tasters across the UK to run tastings for private and corporate clients, at home and at work.
In the last two years he's been educating and entertaining wine drinkers with his weekly wine podcast, The UK Wine Show, which has over 10,000 downloads each week. His most recent project in 2008 has been to launch ThirtyFifty in Australia with a team in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne and Perth.
Chris runs ThirtyFifty with his wife, Jane, from their home in Twickenham with the help of two daughters aged 1 and 4.
