My passion is to bring the world together through wine by celebrating and supporting the very best independent, small family and sustainable vineyards in Bordeaux and Cognac especially, but indeed the world over … Are you new to wine? Are you a connoisseur? Or are you just wine curious?

I’m based in Bordeaux, working locally, within France and internationally with people seeking help with wine across the globe. Originally I grew up in Virginia, but for the last 22 years I’ve lived in Britain, the Swiss Alps and of course here in Bordeaux, so I have a unique international perspective yet at the same time … I’ve become firmly rooted here in the wilds of Bordeaux amongst the vines. I can help organize your wine tours and tastings, find and source your wedding wines, make tailored recommendations, sommelier at events and more!

If you are visiting France, I can source the best local wines for your stay that the supermarkets don’t want you to know about. With regards to my services, here is a list of some of the work that I do most regularly relative to weddings: -bespoke wine tours of independent, small family, sustainable wineries -organizing wedding wines for couples -wine pairing their wines with their wedding meals -wine tours of a region (with a focus on independent, family run, sustainable wineries) -remote selection of wines -either personally driving or generally organizing fulfillment to the venues of wines for couples for their "big day" -serving as their personal "sommelier" for a wedding -organizing wine related activities for a wedding weekend -cave curation Let's start with hello (or howdy or bonjour!)! I’m a friendly guy who loves to talk wine.
