Lunch with Arco Laarman of Glen Carlou

My association with Glen Carlou goes way back. Since my early days in the wine business, I’ve held the Finlayson family, who built this farm’s reputation, in high esteem. I’ve also known Arco for many years – he’s been at Glen Carlou since 2000, working under David Finlayson until his departure three years ago. But my recent lunch with Arco still felt like a first. It was the first opportunity I’ve had to talk with the man since he’d assumed the position of chief winemaker, and it was exciting to see how he has grown into the job.
