On The Pass 60. Hot Spot: Kristin Olszewski of Nomadica Wine
On this episode of the Hot Spot series, Gabriel Ornelas sits down with entrepreneur and sommelier Kristin Olszewski. Kristin is the Founder and CEO of Nomadica Wine—a premium, sustainably sourced canned wine brand that is looking to make waves in the industry, or as they say on the Nomadica website, they are sourcing universally gratifying wines with flavor profiles that are “serious enough for a glass, but vivacious enough to be sipped out of the can.”
Kristin earned a degree in sustainable agriculture before embarking on pre-med studies at Harvard, but life had different plans for her. She met the owner of a wine bar who sparked her passion for wine, and decided to drop out of Harvard Medical School to earn a Level 3 sommelier certification.
Kristin then spent the next decade working at iconic and award winning establishments like Saison, Osteria Mozza, Gigi’s, Husk and numerous others. Now Kristin is on a mission to disrupt the wine industry and is architecting a plan to draw in younger consumers to the category.
