Daphne Teremetz

Daphne Teremetz is an independent wine consultant, specialised in organic wines from all French regions.

Having grown up in France and the UK, she is an experienced judge and is firmly into the second decade of her buying career, which started in the Ladies Tailoring department at Marks and Spencer’s London head office.

Following successful studies with WSET in London, she made the switch to wine with M&S, taking responsibility for online. This was followed by a move to the expansive convenience chain Spar UK where her improvements to the wine range resulted in recognition by the press and judges alike, and an award for Drinks Business Retail Buyer of the Year in 2016.

From 2016 to 2024 she worked for Waitrose, responsible for various categories including all French regions, Italy, South America and South Africa.
