Richard Baudains

Decanter Magazine, Regional Chair for Veneto DWWA 2019

Richard Baudains was born and brought up on the formerly French-speaking island of Jersey (hence the French surname). He moved to Italy to teach, and had the good fortune to pursue the profession in many of Italy's top wine regions. His first article with Decanter was published in 1988, and he has been writing about Italian wine for the magazine ever since, currently with a monthly column on Decanter Premium. He is a judge and long-time regional chair at the Decanter World Wine Awards, on the editorial team of the Slow Wine Guide for Friuli Venezia Giulia, and has taught MA courses on Wine Journalism at the Università delle Scienze Gastronomiche. Baudains judges in wine competitions and leads tastings and educational seminars in various Italian regions. Outside of wine, he works as a Cambridge University English language examiner. He lives in Gorizia.
