A husband and wife team change the face of wine and help people discover over a billion bottles. Tony and Barbara Laithwaite have done so much in wine it's almost impossible to list it all, but in this wide ranging conversation we will try. From the beginning of English sparkling wine, democratizing great Bordeaux, to discovering New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, to making wine on the royal grounds of Windsor Castle, the Laithwaites continue to change the face of wine around the world. Dont forget to tune into our Original film about the family "Verticals: The Laithwaites" on November 5th on SOMM TV.
