Craft & Cool Climate Wines in China with Campbell Thompson, Founder of The Wine Republic

Episode Summary

Today we sit down to discuss two very different wine making countries: Australian and Austrian. Campell Thompson is the Founder of The Wine Republic and one of the pioneers of cool climate and craft wines into China. He started importing Pinot Noir from Yarra at a time when the market was only focused on big and bold Barossa Shiraz. He was also one of the first to import Austrian wines in China, a small and relatively unknown region with plenty of high quality and delicious wines.
