Charlie Leary: Your Personal Wine Teacher"I moved to Panama in 2020, and from here I share my broad knowledge of worldwide food & wine culture through both hands-on and internet classes.
I opened my first restaurant in Uptown New Orleans in 1996 and went on to works as a sommelier/wine director in Nova Scotia, Costa Rica, and southwest France. My book Leary's Global Wineology was published in 2022." A member of the Circle of Wine Writers, Charlie Leary has directed restaurant wine programs in the US, Canada, Costa Rica, and France. In the mid 1990s, while earning a PhD from Cornell University, he made artisanal cheeses and counted among the first North Americans inducted into the Guilde International des Fromagers; he later planned, planted, and managed an IGP vineyard in Andalusia. His book-length guide to worldwide wine education programs (Leary’s Global Wineology) was first published in 2022, in part based on his experience earning numerous wine certifications. His feature articles have appeared in Decanter magazine, Jane Anson’s Inside Bordeaux, Gastronomica: The Journal for Food Studies, JancisRobinson.com, Sommelier Business, Hudin.com, and Tim Atkin MW’s website, among others. He recently consulted for the wine metaverse startup Second Winery and wrote a report on the history of wine sensory analysis for the Wine Scholar Guild. Charlie writes the features for wine expert Mark Oldman's Bevinars. He now lives in Panama, where he offers wine classes, and is writing a book on the philosopher Montesquieu as an eighteenth century winegrower. |
