MJ’s Guest today is the Owner-Manager of Domaine Bertagna, in Nuit-Saints-Georges, France, Eva Reh. Coming from a family of winegrowers in the Moselle valley in Germany, Eva Reh grew up in the vineyards discovering a love for the land and a passion for wine passed down from one generation to another. Her family’s wine love story began after World War II with Eva's grandfather who bought wine in bulk from Burgundy. Being a Francophile and lover of great wines, in 1954 he acquired his first vines Chambolle Musigny-Village in Burgundy. In 1982, Eva's father had the opportunity to own Domaine Bertagna in Vougeot. In this episode we learn how Eva, the youngest of her five siblings, came to run Domaine Bertagna. She will share the story of her early years, wanting to run off to live in Paris, but how the lure and passion to build upon her family's legacy in France was too great to ignore. In true pioneer spirit, Eva shares how she managed to work alongside her father while also paving her own way as a woman in wine in the 1980’s. A huge thank you to Eva Reh!
