Brazilian wine with Marcela de Genaro from Eat Rio

Marcela de Genaro tossed her career as a journalist to become a sommelier and wine expert. Today, she is a wine expert who has curated a wine experience in her city of Rio de Janeiro.

Marcela tells me about how vineyards came to be planted in Brazil, the art of pairing food and wine, how the young Brazilian wine industry is finding its footing, the different wine regions of Brazil and the popularity of natural wine and low intervention wines in Brazil. Plus, some great recommendations for your vacation in Rio! [Ep 395]
