Posted @withrepost • @femmesduvin Cat Taylor is the Assistant Winemaker 🍇 at @lwwines in Nova Scotia’s Annapolis Valley. Despite growing up in a teetotal household & studying/building a career in business, Cat eventually realised that her future belonged to winemaking. While visiting friends in France 🇫🇷 , she recognized that this incredible intersection of wine, food, people and sense of place was very much worth exploring - this discovery was one of a few key catalysts that led Cat to leave her corporate life and move to Bordeaux for an immersive wine experience.
•
With internships at Domaine Zind-Humbrecht in Alsace, and Tawse Winery in Niagara under her belt, and her Master of Science and Technology from the Bordeaux School of Agricultural Engineering firmly in hand, she returned to Canada 🇨🇦 hungry for more experiences in biodynamic viticulture and winemaking. Cat has been with Lightfoot & Wolfville, Nova Scotia's only biodynamic winery, since early 2018.

Come meet Cat, along with the rest of the Lightfoot & Wolfville team at our Women of Wine social tomorrow night at Obladee Wine Bar 🎫🍇🍷. 📷: @eatwithjessie •

I loved the candles but I’m pretty pumped to have electricity back. Thanks @nspower for working late into the night(s) for all of us!

The worst damage seems to be trees falling over, fortunately I haven’t seen any structural damage. Some trellis damage in spots but the grapes appear to have made it through. Biggest tragedy is the dearth of hot coffee (after some ‘foraging’, Big Stop New Minas and Robin’s in Canning are open for both coffee and gas FYI)
