The Wine Graft with Femi Oyediran

On today's show, Stephen chats wine with sommelier, Femi Oyediran. Femi is the co-owner of Graft wine shop in Charleston, NC. Stephen and Femi chat about becoming a sommelier in a predominantly white space, Femi’s passion for music and pairings of music and wine, and our thoughts on the influx of a sober curious generation.

Femi found his passion for wine at a young age while working at the Charleston Grill and during his time there, he made the rare achievement of passing the first three levels of the Court of Master Sommeliers within two years. He is a two-time national finalist for the Chaîne des Rôtisseur's Best Young Sommeliers Competition. And in 2018 he was awarded Wine Enthusiast Magazine’s ‘40 Under 40’ and was selected as “Sommelier of the Year” by Food and Wine Magazine in 2019.
