MICHAEL SCOTT
Director of International Sales
One summer in Singapore, a college intern was introduced to French wines at a local shop. At the end of the summer, he left business school to pursue his new passion for wine.
Michael moved to France to learn the language and build a career, spending 5 years at France’s largest ne/rare wine broker, curating a global rolodex of clients and suppliers. He received a diploma in Wine and Management from Le Cordon Bleu in Paris and an MBA in Luxury Brand Management at INSEEC Paris.
In 2020, Michael connected with Gordon’s to achieve their shared goal: develop the company into one of the best global merchants of rare wine.
