LEDOMDUVIN  |  SOMMELIER

 

LeDomduVin is my alias

My real name is Dominique Noël

I'm a French-born naturalized American, 

Bordeaux Native and grandson of a Vigneron - Winemaker

​

Travelled and seasoned Sommelier and Wine Expert

Wine Consultant - Wine Buyer - Wine Writer

and Wine Quality Control & Compliance Director

 

Boasting about 30 years of

Wine purchasing  / selling / promoting / writing / 

marketing  / tasting  / judging  / travelling and education, 

and management positions

in restaurants, hotels, sizable and niche boutique retail stores,

as well as with the wine division of a large corporate company

​

I worked over 3 continents in exciting markets

and wine hubs such as

Bordeaux, Paris, London, New York and currently Hong Kong

 

Often depicted as a skilful and passionate Sommelier,

as well as, Épicurien, Baroudeur,

Amoureux de la Vie, Agent Perturbateur, Curieux et Créatif,

and an advocate of the Latin aphorism "Carpe Diem"

 

I'm a very opinionated 

Sommelier | Wine Consultant

who loves talking and learning about wine  

and also loves writing long, factual and detailed posts

complemented by my pictures and illustrations 

on my Wine Blog at www.ledomduvin.com

 

As well as sharing

my knowledge and passion for wine

with everyone (family, friends, novices,

amateurs, connoisseurs and peers alike)  

via discussions, live streaming and videos,

wine classes, public and private wine tastings,

and other wine and food-related events, 

with a strong presence on Social Media 

​

Besides Wine and Food,

I have nurtured from a very young age

a passion for writing, drawing, photography,

music, art and culture, fueled by

a great dose of imagination, curiosity and creativity

and the insatiable need to create and compose

to translate all my thoughts, ideas and dreams

into words, images, drawings, illustrations,

photos, collages, montages, videos and more.
 

You can find all my works under both aliases 

LeDomduVin & Domelgabor
