About James Scarcebrook
James has worked in the wine industry in Australia since 2004 gaining experience in various commercial elements including retail, hospitality, tourism, marketing and sales. Four years were spent with the Australian arm of Domaine Chandon in the Yarra Valley, and during his tenure he began a Masters of Wine Business with the University of Adelaide. In 2010, he became the wine buyer for an important wine store in Melbourne and also completed his first international wine tour to France. He decided to embark on a 16-month wine odyssey around the world once he completed his Masters degree mid-2011. Visiting wine-producing countries across three continents, he returned with a new perspective on wine and an appreciation for the wines of Australia and New Zealand. He continues to write on his own blog where he chronicled his wine adventure, and would like to write a number of books in the future when he gets around to it.
