Jonathan Ramteke

Sommelier

Every glass of wine tells a story, and I love sharing those stories with others. I'm a finance professional by day, and wine fanatic at night. My wine travels have brought me to Bordeaux, Champagne, Porto, the Douro Valley, Temecula, and Long Island, and I've worked wine events, tastings, and retail. I hold a WSET Level 3 Award in Wines, with specialized knowledge in the wines of France.
