Speaking about her journey, Sonal Holland says, “After working in the corporate industry for seven years, I decided to pivot my career and reinvent it. I spent 10 years studying, and in the process immersed myself in the world of wine. It all started with a fascination for the intricate flavors and aromas in every bottle, and I was determined to understand them better. Over the years, I have worked hard to become a Master of Wine, a title that is widely regarded as the highest achievement in the world of wine.”
When asked about the wine on her bucket list she replied, “Drinking wine with Shahrukh Khan is on my bucket list, no matter which wine it will be.”
