About me

Hello, I’m Hans Christian, nice to meet you! With over 30 years as a wine lover and more than a decade working professionally in the industry, I’ve built my career around exploring, understanding, and sharing the world of wine. I am a certified sommelier, wine agent, wine judge and now the founder of The Winesaver. My roles in the wine world have allowed me to work closely with wineries, lead tastings, collaborate on industry projects, and represent respected brands across Europe.

Over time, I realised that while most conversations in the wine world focus on taste, origin, and pairing, far less attention is given to how wine is actually cared for. Winemakers dedicate extraordinary effort to protecting their wines from oxidation during ageing and production, using controlled temperatures, careful handling and inert gases like argon long before the wine is bottled. That same level of care is equally important once the bottle leaves the winery, but once the bottle reaches the consumer, that care often disappears. I thought that was a shame.

That thought grew into a new fascination: not just talking but helping people to truly preserve wine. From storage and temperature to the moment the bottle is opened and how to keep that wine at its best for as long as possible. With The Winesaver I want to make that easier. Affordable, practical and simple. Whether you drink one glass a night at home, run a wine shop or work with a wine-by-the-glass programme in hospitality: my goal is simple. Preserving wine as the winemaker intended… until the very last sip, at your pace.
