#111 - Fongyee Walker - Mainland China's First Resident Master of Wine

In the middle of intense tastings at the Wynn Signature Chinese Wine Awards , we sat down with Fongyee Walker MW, Mainland China’s first resident Master of Wine, and Judge and Vice Chair at the competition . In this dynamic conversation, we dive into Fongyee’s incredible journey: from discovering wine at university to becoming a leading voice in China’s wine scene . Together, we explore the evolution of Chinese wine, the rise of a new generation of curious drinkers, and the unique way wine education is transforming across the country. We also unpack what it really means to judge wines at an international level, and why culture, not just terroir, shapes great bottles. If you’re curious about wine, China, or bold career paths, this episode will inspire you to taste, learn, and think differently. ▬▬ 🎁 GIFTS 🎁 ▬▬ 📚 Hugh Johnson's Story of Wine , by Hugh Johnson 📚 Wine and War , by Donald Kladstrup and Petie Kladstrup 🐦‍🔥 Dragon Phoenix Wine Consulting 🍷 Wynn Signature Chinese Wine Awards 🤓 Learn all you need to know about wine with Wine 101 , the ultimate online course 🎁 Get your wine essentials on our shop : a curated selection of wine glasses, posters and much more ▬▬ ⭐️ ABOUT ⭐️ ▬▬ My name is Antoine, and I’ve been passionate about wine for several years.
