Fifty years at one remarkable restaurant. A lifetime devoted to wine and hospitality. Serge Dubs isn't just a legend of sommellerie, he is a symbol of professionalism, loyality and the best qualities of hospitality.
In this episode of A Sommelier’s Insight, host Mark DeWolf asks Serge, crowned ASI Best Sommelier of the World in 1989, to reflect on five decades of sommellerie both through the lens of his work at Alsace’s celebrated L’Auberge de l’Ill and his time as a sommelier competitor, leader of various sommelier organizations and mentor to many generations of sommeliers that have come after him. From the competition stage to the dining room, their conversation explores the evolution of sommellerie, the importance of making guests feel welcome, and the passion that sustains a lifetime in the profession.
