Belinda studied winemaking in Australia at the University of Adelaide (Roseworthy and Waite campuses) before working for BRL Hardy as a winemaker in both the Clare Valley and McLaren Vale. A harvest with BRL Hardy's then-owned winery in the Languedoc, Domaine de la Baume, saw Belinda find a thirst for travel and a move to California's Carneros region for more winemaking experience.
In 2001 Belinda moved to the UK for its incredible access to wines from all over the world. Having worked as a winemaker and technical manager for UK agent, Bibendum, for seven years, Belinda now works for UK retailer, Marks & Spencer, sourcing and blending wines from all over the world for sale in M&S stores.
