Curator of 45,000 bottles: Susanne Wagner, Crystal Springs Restaurant Latour

Last month, I was a guest of the New Jersey Wine and Food Festival held at Crystal Springs Resort in Hamburg, NJ.  I had the opportunity to sit down with Susanne Wagner, the wine director for Restaurant Latour at Crystal Springs.  Susanne studied at the International Wine Cellar in Manhattan and has completed advanced certifications.  She has been in the wine industry for more than 30 years. Susanne gave me a personal tour of their magnificent wine celler before sitting down for a little one-on-one about Crystal Springs and what it is like to be responsible for curating 45,000 bottles. Restaurant Latour maintains the Wine Spectator’s Grand Award. I can’t describe how beautiful this cellar is, but I can honestly say, I wouldn’t mind getting lost there!
