Cavist
A professional cavist during his career develops a certain circle of clients who trust only his choice, knowing that he will pick up what is needed.

Cavistas work in wine trading companies and specialized wine boutiques.
The work of a cavist also involves business trips to get to know the wine-growing regions and their wines better. As the career grows, the cavist gets the opportunity not only to sell wine, but also to decide on its purchase by the company.
