Andrew is the one who had the bright idea for World’s Best Vineyards (WBV). He is the brand custodian for WBV and World's Best Sommeliers' Selection, both of which are important to parent company William Reed. He is responsible for their effective running but says he has “a brilliant team that deals with all the details on a day to day basis”.
Andrew joined William Reed in 1992 after a career in the Army and is now “passionate about conservation”.
Kate is responsible for all commercial partnerships across WBV and World's Best Sommeliers' Selection, working with wine producers and wine tourism destinations to raise awareness of excellence in the international wine community. Her introduction to fine wines came via the Bristol Bordeaux French School Exchange program and was reinforced by a six-month placement at Le Grand Hotel De La Reine, in Nancy. After working on women’s and car publications, Kate joined William Reed in 2014, starting on Harpers magazine.
