Bert Blaize

Victoria Brzezinski is a multi-award winning feature writer, columnist and restaurant critic. Named 2022’s lifestyle and interiors journalist of the year, she has written for The Times and The Sunday Times since 2018 on myriad topics from design to food and farming. She cut her teeth in hospitality working front of house with five years spent at some of London’s top restaurants – wine tastings were always the best part of the job.

In 2017, Bert was named the UK’s Top Young Sommelier by Flint Wines and was nominated by GQ, Drinks Business and Imbibe as sommelier of the year. He co-authored Which Wine When in 2020. Bert lives in Norfolk, where he runs North Norfolk Cellars.
