The Professionals S2018E04 - Always Joyful

Koji Nakada, Winemaker For 23 years, Japanese winemaker Koji Nakada has been building a career in France's prestigious Burgundy wine region. He started from nothing; now his wines are sought after: exported to 22 countries and served in acclaimed restaurants. His success through ceaseless pursuit of "the perfect wine" is the fruit of his distinctive philosophy. While we followed him for 3 months in 2017, a hailstorm struck Nakada's vineyard. As he nurses the damaged grapevines back to health, we see his passion for uncompromising winemaking and determination to look optimistically forward even when facing setbacks like bad weather and bad harvests.
