The Economics of Desire: Inside Wine Auctions with Amayès Aouli
Q: And quite logically, my very first question would be to ask you to introduce yourself and tell us what you do and what is that role in place that you have in the global fine wine ecosystem.
Amayès describes his role as Global Head of Wine and Spirits at Bonhams, leading a team of experts across the globe, focusing on auctions of fine wines and spirits, partnerships with domains, and charity auctions, all while maintaining high standards and global reach.
The Relevance of Spirituality in Winemaking
Q: How does the discovery in science affect your spirituality and connection with nature?
Ted expresses that scientific discoveries reinforce his connection to a greater life force rather than challenge it.
The Relevance of Spirituality in Winemaking
Q: What's spirituality to you? What does that word mean?

Areni Live Sessions, Ep1: Wine, Health and Changing Regulations
Q: Is moderation still a valid concept?
Moderate drinking remains a valid concept, and research suggests that controlled consumption can be health neutral, but discussions are ongoing regarding its acceptance in public policy.
