Kate is one of those rare professionals who truly understands not just the wine business, but what our brands are trying to achieve commercially and reputationally.
I've had the privilege of working with Kate for 15 years, and in that time she's become much more than our UK PR consultant for Pyramid Valley and Smith & Sheth, she’s become a trusted friend and an integral extension of our team.
Whether coordinating a media tasting or pitching to business and wine trade publications, Kate brings the same meticulous attention to detail and genuine enthusiasm that we put into our viticulture and winemaking.
Her network of media relationships is impressive - she knows exactly who to approach and how to frame our story for maximum impact. But what sets Kate apart is how effortless she makes everything feel; she anticipates what we need, moves at pace when opportunities arise, and understands that great wine comes from great places looked after by passionate people, which is exactly the story she helps us tell.
In an industry where authenticity can sometimes get lost in the noise, Kate ensures our voice remains true to who we are and what we believe in. If you're looking for someone who will champion your brand with the same passion you put into creating it, Kate Sweet is your person.
