Jingle Those Bells!!! FWS in the News

 

The Wine Scholar Guild and its educational programs are in the news!  Both France magazine and The French Wine Examiner have put us in print or on the cyber-information highway.

 


This from The French Wine Examiner…

 

"… if you are seeking information on and education about French wines, at either the enthusiast or professional level, the best single source in the United States is the Wine Scholar Guild.
 
Founded by Julien Camus as a not-for-profit organization to fill what he perceived as a profound and timely need for information, communication and definitive up-to-the-minute education about French wines, spirits, foods and culture, the FWS has developed into an amazingly effectual force in an amazingly short period of time."

Julien Camus

Founder & President @ Wine Scholar Guild

Julien worked as Trade Attaché for wines and spirits at the French Embassy in Washington DC (2004-2006). In this role, he recognized the need for French wine education as a means to spur consumer demand and interest in his country’s wines.

To that end, he founded the Wine Scholar Guild in August of 2005,an organization dedicated to the promotion of French wine and culture through education. Julien invited national importers of French wine to join the organization as Industry Members and 25 key French wine importers did so immediately.

After leaving the embassy, he has devoted his energies to developing the Wine Scholar Guild and its network of program providers around the globe. Julien holds a Masters Degree in Business Administration with a major in International Marketing from the Strasbourg Management School.

In 2019, Julien was one of the "Future 50" award winners, an award created by WSET and IWSC to acknowledge professionals under 40 who have made a significant contribution to the industry.
