Max Gurtler
The Good Food Guide’s NSW 2024 Sommelier of the Year is a wine professional who has a deep knowledge of the subject, while helping to influence and inspire.
Friendly, poised and hugely knowledgeable, Max Gurtler wields Oncore’s far-reaching wine list with aplomb. The Berlin-born sommelier developed an interest in wine while working at Rockpool Bar & Grill, moved to the greatly missed Momofuku Seiobo in 2017, and now recommends everything from four-figure First Growths to English sparkling for Clare Smyth’s highly finessed food.
A superb communicator and team leader, Gurtler is consistently tuned into guests’ personal tastes, rather than pushing an agenda and favourites of his own.
