About Edouard Payot:
Born in the French Alps, close to the vineyards of the Rhone Valley, Edouard has always been passionate about wines, a love affair that started at an early age, thanks to his grandfather. After graduating from studies in Politics & Finance, both in France and the UK, he decided to do everything he could to live from his passion and managed to enter the wine industry by starting to work for M.Chapoutier in Australia, back in 2012. Being responsible for the local sales of Australian and French wines from Chapoutier, it was a real revelation; and since then he’s been constantly travelling around the world to spread the good word about Rhone Valley wines, a region, he believes, that is still underestimated for the quality of its wines. From Melbourne to Dubai, to Singapore, he has had 13 years educating people about wines and sharing his passion.
