The word of the wine: Cellar master
The cellar master is the technical manager of a winery (usually a professional oenologist), who presides over and oversees the wine-making process and its maturation. Unlike an oenologist in a wine laboratory, who intervenes on an ad hoc basis to assist the winemaker, the cellar master is part of the estate's technical team.
