Le vin. Vino. Vinho. Wein.

Wine, by any name, is a universal language—but it must still be translated with precision.

I specialize in translating wine. Not merely words about wine, but the culture, craftsmanship and intent behind them. Wine is a language of its own, shaped by tradition, terroir and technical nuance. Rendering it accurately across languages requires more than fluency—it requires domain expertise.

Linguistic rigour meets wine expertise

My skills combine rigorous linguistic training and in-depth wine knowledge. I have multiple post-secondary degrees in translation, professional certification from the Association of Translators and Interpreters of Ontario, and over two decades of experience delivering polished, publication-ready translations. I am as passionate about wine as you are, and a certified sommelier to boot. This rare combination ensures that technical accuracy, stylistic nuance and industry context are never compromised.

Language combinations

I currently translate wine content in the following language pairs:

  • French ⇄ English
  • Spanish → English

From concise tasting notes to full-scale websites, appellation materials, and marketing campaigns, I treat every project with the same care you invest in crafting your message. My approach goes far beyond literal translation, creating natural, compelling texts that resonate with your target market while preserving your brand voice and intent.

Why AI doesn’t cut it

Artificial intelligence (AI) can assist with many tasks, but it cannot taste, smell or experience wine. A system that has never held a glass, visited a cellar, or tasted a vintage can’t replicate the insight, sensitivity and passion required to translate wine properly. When your content reflects years of expertise and heritage, it deserves the attention of a professional who truly understands the product.

Let’s talk

If you are seeking precise, credible and culturally fluent wine translation—whether for a single label or a comprehensive international launch—I would be pleased to collaborate on your next project.
