Randy Bennett, General Manager & Winemaker, Sojourn Cellars
|
|
Randy Bennett started his career at Accenture, a well-known international business consultancy that empowers companies to be their best. Driven by his passion for wine, in 2006 he left the comfort of a successful career as a consultant, to pursue winemaking. His first position in the wine industry was interning with Thomas Brown and Mike Smith while making wine for several labels including Nicholson Ranch. From there, he moved to Sojourn as their Assistant Winemaker. As the brand grew, his business acumen and experience at Accenture enabled him to take the leadership role as General Manager at Sojourn Cellars, in addition to fulfilling his dream of making wine. Here's his story.
