d’Argent restaurant in Paris, at the age of 20, where he remained
for ten years. Christian was a judge at the historic 1976 Paris Wine
Tasting -a blind tasting where nine French judges shocked the
industry by choosing unknown California wines over France’s best-
which had a lasting and revolutionary impact on the world of wine
(Web search “Christian

Vanneque pursued a career in wine and the hospitality industry for
the next 30 years partially in France but mostly in the U.S. He
