Hi my name is Boris, the author of Chilean-wine.com

And no, this is not how I perform wine tastings. I usually wear a bib.

I was born with very sensitive olfactory senses and a natural love for things made with alcohol. I knew I had to my talents to good use. It was a natural fit for me to begin writing about my fondness of wine. Wine in general, however, was too broad a topic, so I decided to focus on Chilean wine.

Though I’ve spent most of my life in California, I’m originally from Chile. So… I realized that I had the Chilean origin, love of wine, a nose for smells, and I was living in California, America’s wine country. It was perfect. The planets had aligned. It was as if I had found my life’s purpose.

Besides, I have drunk a lot of wine and had planned to drink much more as I got older. So why not to make a career out of it?
