The sommelier on a journey.

 

After earning a degree in Sustainable Agriculture, Kristin Olszewski got her start in restaurants cooking in the Bay Area.  She joined the front of house team at Saison, where she was first exposed to French wine.  She has been a sommelier at Straight Wharf Restaurant in Nantucket, Husk Nashville, Osteria Mozza and Gigi’s Los Angeles. She is the Founder + CEO of Nomadica Wine where she thoughtfully curates a selection of high quality canned wine and one of 2021 Wine Enthusiast’s 40 under 40. She is passionate about working with high quality, small producers who focus on sustainable practices.

But this is today.

Like any good story, Kristin’s journey took twists and turns. For many of us who yearn for deeper, richer experiences, it’s easy to get burned on the path of learning how to love yourself. Sometimes those lessons reach us in mysterious ways. And in the case of Kristin: via a former U.S. President.
