Jonathan Christensen
Restaurantchef og Head Sommelier på Restaurant Aure
Certified Sommelier hos CMS
I am currently a Certified Sommelier with CMS (Court of Master Sommeliers).
In addition, I am a member of the Danish Sommelier Association, where I passed my entry exam on the first attempt. I have not attended any of the Danish sommelier programs; I consider myself self-taught, albeit with a lot of help from skilled colleagues along the way.
Today, I am Restaurant Manager and Head Sommelier at Restaurant Aure, which opened at the beginning of March this year. I started in the restaurant industry during my gap year, where especially our Head Sommelier was talented at passing on knowledge, and I quickly became passionate about wine. I became eager to know more about wine, to be able to taste the differences, as well as to know the locations of all the bottles in the wine cellar (approx. 2600).
A couple of years later, I got the role of Head Sommelier at the same restaurant, and since then I have been at, among others, Kanalen, Formel b, Levi, and now Aure.
