Jeremy Maron serves as Director of Wine Discovery at Valleys & Vines, where he helps transform wine travel into something deeply personal. With a background in luxury wine hospitality, education, and guest experiences, Jeremy believes the best wine journeys are built not just around exceptional bottles, but around the people, places, and stories that bring them to life.
Known as The Existential Wine Guy, Jeremy approaches wine as more than something to taste, it is a conversation, a memory, and a shared experience. His philosophy encourages travelers to slow down, let go of expectations, and discover the unique connection each wine creates to its place, its maker, and the moment itself.
Whether curating intimate winery experiences, introducing guests to passionate winemakers, or helping design bespoke itineraries throughout the world's most celebrated wine regions, Jeremy's goal is simple: to create experiences that linger long after the final glass has been poured.
