In this episode of Wine Industry Insiders, George Christie sits down with Honore Comfort, Vice President of International Marketing at Wine Institute, to explore her incredible career path, the evolving landscape of global wine trade, and how California wineries can unlock export opportunities.

She shares powerful insights on how wineries of all sizes can succeed internationally, the role of Wine Institute in policy and advocacy, and the tools available to help producers grow their reach beyond U.S. borders.
