Cricket-mad Beth Willard’s journey in wine started with a part-time job at Hardy’s Cellar Door operation in Canberra. Since then, she’s lived in France, the United Kingdom and Spain, where she’s made her home. In her time, Beth has been a top buyer as well as a show judge and journalist. A speaker of four languages, she loves travel, foreign cultures and, of course wine, bringing passion, knowledge and a sense of humour to everything she does.
