Hello, I’m Mohona Chowdhury, a wine professional, educator and journalist with over 8 years of experience across the global wine and hospitality industry.
Why “The Winedian Girl”?
Choosing this name was deeply personal. It blends my passion for wine with my Indian heritage, a combination that reflects my identity and the journey I am on. Being Indian in the world of fine wine is still rare, and I wanted to celebrate that perspective rather than hide it.
My Qualifications
- WSET Level 3
- French Wine Scholar
- Certified Sommelier
- Master’s in Wine and Hospitality Management, KEDGE Business School and École Hôtelière de Lausanne
Published Work
My writing has been published in wine and lifestyle publications, bringing an independent and culturally distinct voice to wine journalism. As one of the few Indian women working at the intersection of fine wine, gastronomy and travel, I offer a perspective that is both informed and genuinely underrepresented in the industry.
Cheers!
The Winedian Girl
