A hopeless romantic for wine, Cyndal is a Chef-turned-Sommelier and award-winning wine professional. Formerly a Group Sommelier overseeing seven venues, she led her team to win Gourmet Traveller Wine Bar of the Year just months after opening.

Now freelance, Cyndal is always on the move- consulting, judging, and reviewing for Winepilot, bringing a fresh, approachable voice to wine. Often hosting masterclasses, filming, and emceeing industry events, she shares the story of wine in a digestible and entertaining way. After years of studying, travelling, and working as a sommelier, she’s now based in WA’s southwest, proudly embracing life as a coastal cowgirl.. and Sommelier-of-Sorts.
