ONNECA GUELBENZU

Onneca Guelbenzu is part of the new wine generation. She has red wine in her blood from a family side, has a degree in Law by the University of Navarra, she is a  Sommelier formed in Barcelona, she's got a Master in Oenology, Viticulture and Wine Marketing (EVENA) and the Advanced Wset Certification, the Wset in Sake of 1 and 3.

She is a real fan of the new technologies and digital marketing, being and expert in the possibilities of promotion that the social networks as facebook and twitter can offer to wineries. In addition she is a musician and a rocking sommelier, and she has nine published albums and international tours as her background.

Onneca doesn't know about scenic panic and is a good vibe and communicative person, also empathic and respectful.

To a desert island she would take with her without doubting a spicy chorizo and an excellent wine and company to share with, and her craziest creation with the Thermomix has been the spicy chorizo ice cream.

Right now she is fascinated with the world of Saké, with synthesizers, with the Theremin, with making sourdough bread, with sewing, with embroidery and with Orange Wine. She would love to go deeper into the knowledge of Sherry and Montilla-Moriles asap.

And because knowledge has no boundaries and we should not forget to have fun, Wine n' roll is her passion and mission.
