The world of wine has always caught Charlie's interest, having tasted it before he'd even touched a saxophone. But he started working with wine professionally in 2020 - partly inspired by his Italian heritage, but significantly influenced by a certain global event...
With newfound qualifications he became a wine tasting presenter for a merchant in central London, hosting groups of keen tasters several times a week.
He's currently qualified up to WSET Level 3 with Distinction and is a member of the Wine Scholar Guild, currently working towards his Italian and then French Wine Scholar post-nominals.
Charlie decided to take the best parts from his day and night jobs, and created a new company, Tasting Notes, where he and his slick house band bring you a music and laughter-infused wine experience like no other.
