Where's Linus

Born in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, Chris Christensen never thought winemaking was an actual career path for people who weren’t born into a winery or vineyard until he went on a wine tasting trip to Sonoma during his Junior year at Stanford. Although originally fueled – as Chris himself admits – by the idea that knowing a thing or two about wine might impress girls, Chris’ curiosity about wine quickly turned into a real passion.

About the Winemaker

Where's Linus

Chris Christensen, a native of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, stumbled upon his passion for winemaking during a fateful wine tasting trip to Sonoma while attending Stanford University. Initially driven by the allure of impressing others, particularly women, with his knowledge of wine, Christensen's curiosity swiftly transformed into a genuine ardor for the craft. Despite briefly venturing into the world of banking, he ultimately surrendered to his true calling, establishing himself as a vintner with his own label, Bodkin Wines, alongside collaborations with other wine companies.
