Jessica Senning is a sommelier and restaurant manager currently based in a small town two hours north of Stockholm, Sweden.
As many wine professionals Jessica initially had other plans for her future, but during a part-time job waiting tables she succumbed to a feverish interest in and love of everything wine-related. Almost two decades later Jessica’s managed restaurants in Sweden, Denmark and Norway, worked for wine magazines such as DinVinguide.se and Apéritif.no, and last but least held the position of Oslo Ambassador for Star Wine List.
Having curated wine lists for everything from a Basque pintxos bar to an Italian trattoria, she's developed a love for the lesser-known regions and quirkier grape varieties of the world. There's something special about an underdog – whether it's a grape no one has heard of, a region associated with bulk wine, or a producer that appears out of nowhere.
Today she helps Camilla Lindh with the administrative duties and day-to-day operations of Star Wine List, whilst dreaming of new restaurant openings and daring wine-related schemes.
