"How do we decolonize wine?"

Nathan Ratapu is the owner of Rerenga Wines, a wine & book shop in Paris, France.

Nathan, who is of Maori origin from New Zealand, explores decolonial reflections and the intersection of wine, labour, agriculture, indigenous rights, and feminism.

In this conversation, we dive deep into Nathan's background, his childhood in New Zealand, and his life dedication to exploring questions of race and decolonization.

We discuss discrimination in the wine industry, the potential of wine as a force for good, and the need for more diversity and representation in the industry.
