Chris Boiling

Chris is an award-winning journalist who moved into wine and travel writing after buying a rundown winehouse and vineyard in Slovenia. He uses this as a base to explore Central and Eastern Europe and to make small quantities of wine from the region's indigenous grape varieties. He writes about his misadventures in the wine trade for wine websites such as JancisRobinson.com (Diary of a Dream) and leads tours for adventurous wine lovers. These give travellers the opportunity to learn more about wine in general, the wines of Central Europe in particular and also to learn a new skill, such as yoga or kayaking. One new tour for 2018 combines learning about wines and wild bears! @ChrisBoiling
