Hello Readers!
My name is Aurelie, I am 32 years old, born in a city close to Paris, called Chatenay-Malabry.
I have been surrounded by food and wine at a very young age. Of course I was not drinking it but my parents were food and wine lovers too! and they still are!!!
My passion really began while I had my wine course at the catering school with our teacher. He had such a wonderful way to explain wine and his history that I knew I found my way .
After finishing my study I had an amazing opportunity in an Hotel in Paris to be their Head Sommelier I was only 21 years old. It was fantastic but I was too young to have all those responsibilities. And I decide to move to England! Yes at first for my English but then I fell in love with the country and decide to do my life here.
My passion of wine grew very fast and my professionalism made me grew very fast too. I worked for 5 years into a wine company and became wine bar and shop manager. It is there that I started organizing tasting for companies at the bar but also called to do it in their offices. Then I decided it was time to leave and move on to something bigger so for 2 years I worked for a fantastic restaurant where they have a cheese room and were doing events all year around. I organised wine tastings, wine festival, cheese and wine tasting, wine dinner I loved every moment of it!
I then decided to pass my WSET level 3 which I succeed and gave me even more confidence to talk and write about wine.
My passion of wine grew everyday and my passion of food and cheese became bigger too!
This is why I could not just share it with my customers but I had to share it with you readers!
On my website you will find wine tastings, wine and food tastings, wine history and article that I wrote for a magazine that I also want you to be part of. You will also find the page with Your tastings! It is for you to check if there is a tasting that you fancy having and I could be the right person to organize and hold it for you. I am now based in Newcastle and have a lot of free time so please do not hesitate to contact me on [email protected]
Thank you very much
