New Intern in Concealed Wines: Raphael Mercier!

I’m Raphaël from the University of Avignon in France, where I’m completing my master’s degree in international Wine Trade and Wine Tourism. Recently, I finished an internship at a winery in Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Cairanne, which was an incredible learning experience. With a deep passion and family connection to the wine world, pursuing this career felt natural.

Now, I’m excited to explore a new aspect of the wine business, focusing on purchasing and importing with the Scandinavian monopolies. Visiting Sweden has always been a dream, and I am thrilled to be here. I am truly grateful for the chance to join such a dynamic and friendly team.

As an intern, I’m engaged in several fascinating projects. I work closely with French producers to assist them in the tender process, and I also help manage the sample submission to ensure compliance with the monopoly’s admission procedures.

I’m really looking forward to discovering new aspects of the business and learning as much as possible during my time here.
