Join us on a journey with Cathy Moerdijk, a woman whose path into the world of wine has meant nothing less than a true transformation.
Originally an inquisitive academic, Cathy's story takes a fascinating turn when she discovers in herself an unexpected passion for hospitality and service.
In the 1980s, Cathy fervently challenged the established order of the traditionally decorated wine business with her new insights. Her decades-long career has been marked by winning prestigious wine awards and establishing innovative wine bars and restaurants with passion and vision.
All this after making the choice to follow her intuition and embrace her dreams.
Now nothing gives her more satisfaction than sharing her love of wine and food with the world to deepen the experience of food and drink and add even more joy and pleasure to it.
Life's happiness
is the ultimate pursuit, isn't it?
Will you join me on my journey?
For me, family and friends are everything, along with my passion for wine and food.
In this beautiful "tapestry of life," family, friends, wine and food are as essential as the air we breathe.
With Masterchef and husband Imko Binnerts by my side for more than three decades, we have turned our passion into a daily art and lifestyle.
Let's toast to the essence of life!
For more than three decades I have been searching for exceptional
"wines with a message ",
honored along the way with titles like Wine Buyer of the Year and Wine Woman of the Year. But what really matters is the joy on your face when you enjoy a wine from my collection.
My daughter once said, "There is no blood in my mother's veins, there is only wine. And she's right:
I am Wine! Wine!!! Wine!!!
