Leading in Wine and Life: Amy Christine, Master of Wine
Tue Feb 03 2026
Host Michele Kawamoto Perry sits down with Amy Christine, Master of Wine and winemaker, to explore her unexpected journey from performer to winery co-owner, and how leadership can emerge through curiosity, creativity, and courage.
In this episode, Amy reflects on how acting, wine sales, and the rigorous Master of Wine program shaped her leadership style, from listening deeply and reading the room to knowing when to pivot. She also shares the realities of running a small winery, the discipline behind creative branding, and her vision for storytelling across wine, television, and writing. This conversation is a thoughtful look at leading authentically—without chasing trends—and trusting that your tribe will find you.
