Episode 7 - Chris Robshaw
Today I am excited to have on the podcast; the super inspiring athlete, entrepreneur and philanthropist, former England Rugby captain, Chris Robshaw! Chris is renowned for being the Former player and Captain of the London Based Harlequins as well as the Former England Rugby Captain who enabled England to win the 6 Nations in 2016. He is now a multifaceted entrepreneur and his passion for wine means he leads Vin X - a Fine Wine investment platform – in their Sports and Entertainment division. Together with his equally talented and passionate wife, opera singer Camilla Kerslake, they created the Kerslake Robshaw foundation. A charity which enables children from underprivileged backgrounds to have access to Sport and the Arts. We covered his thoughts on the recent Euros and how one captains a team through the highs and lows, what he has learnt about wine since working for Vin X, the trials of early retirement for sportsmen, his views on how our country could be doing more for the Arts and Sports PLUS advice he would give to aspiring athletes as well as his children.. one of which is about to be born any day now!! I look up to both him and his wife as inspiring cross pollinators of culture as well as making an unexpected and brilliant blend as a couple. The wines chosen were picked on that basis. First up is a gorgeous chilled red made from the Marzemino grape as Chris loves Pinot and this Sainsbury’s option is a great alternative. The other two wines come from renowned distributors and sponsors of this podcast, the Rothschild Wine Collection. I chose two of my favourite wines which epitomize brilliant yet not conventional blends. A fantastic white Bordeaux Blend from @chateauclarke and an opulent yet elegant Malbec/Cabernet Blend from @bodegascaro. Videos for these wines are being featured on my Instagram this week for more info!
