Christian Seely is as well known for his bow ties as he is for his generosity and sense of humour. I don’t often get job envy, but I wouldn’t mind swapping with Christian. My latest guest on Cork Talk, he’s the managing director of AXA Millésimes and the man in charge of Château Pichon-Baron, Quinta do Noval and Domaine de l’Arlot, among others. Tune in to hear what inspires AXA to invest in new wineries; about his English wine venture (Coates & Seely); his love of poetry and what he thinks makes Bordeaux and Burgundy so different.
