“Q. Have you ever encountered difficulties as a woman winemaker?
A. Being a woman winemaker has its advantages and its disadvantages, and sometimes, it makes no difference. When I first started, I did run across some resistance from some of the more traditionally minded people in the trade, but now everything is fine. There’s an association in Italy called “Le Donne del Vino” (“ Women of Wine”); somebody once asked me why I didn’t belong to it. I told them that I’d join that association as soon as they create an association called “Gli Uomini del Vino” (“Men of Wine”).” —Winemaker Arianna Occhipinti - Find. Eat. Drink.
