Chris Hambleton has had a 25-year career in wine and worked in all aspects of the business, from the shop floor, to wine education, to guiding tours around First Growth Chateaux, to restaurant consultancy. He now runs Bacchus Wine Auctions, inspecting, valuing and selling millions of pounds' worth of wine every year. Equally at home in a dusty cellar or wielding the gavel at one of Bacchus' live-streamed auctions, he is known for both his expert knowledge and his frank and open commentary. Chris lives in the South of England with his wife, two children and two dogs, and ensures he keeps up to date with all things vinous by regularly sharing treasures from the cellar with fellow wine enthusiasts.
