Wine Editor, Arizona Gourmet Living, Tucson, AZ

Jeanne Christie became fascinated with wine while working in restaurants through college (Rutgers University). Wine literally and figuratively got into her blood where it has stayed for all of her adult life. Needing to soothe her passion for wine Jeanne involved herself in wine sales, winebuying, winery public relations and marketing, wine education and wine writing, including intervals at Dutton Estate~Sebastopol Vineyards, Chandon Estates, Simi Winery and Geyser Peak Winery.

Jeanne currently lives in Tucson, AZ, where she is the Wine Editor for Arizona Gourmet Living and also Vice President-Southern Arizona Market Director of Integris Fine Wine Partners, an exclusive portfolio of small, family owned wineries with good stories and great wine.
