Amanda Bulgin
Sommelier and host by calling
With great convincement and a strong sense of responsibility Amanda Bulgin passes on knowledge about beverages and the virtue of good serving to guests, co-workers and prospective colleagues alike.
As sommelier the English-born splendidly complements the dishes of her husband Sven Wassmer, and together with her team sets new standards for modern hospitality at the highest stage. Additionally, she is studying to become a Master of Wine.
To preserve and advance values
As a certified wine academic Amanda Bulgin worked for the London-based department store Harrods, the Decanter wine magazine and leading restaurants at home and abroad. It is from this range of experiences her aspiration to actively help shape her profession’s future derives.
While embracing the established values of her trade she emphasises the importance of personal virtues: regardless of social status or education guests are to be treated openly and knowledge needs to be delivered in a way that it triggers true curiosity.
Anticipating the Zeitgeist, with the guest in view
Inspired by the close cooperation with local wine makers and distilleries Amanda Bulgin sees herself as a researcher, constantly exploring options and looking for new ways to convey indulgence.
Besides fine wines and spirituous beverages from both established and upcoming wine makers she, therefore, also offers alcohol free pairing based on wild fruits and herbs from the the Swiss Alps — lived innovation that delights her international audience.
