WineTasteTV's Ben Giliberti has been writing about wine for 20-plus years and has been drinking and collecting it a lot longer than that. His columns and recommendations on wine and spirits have appeared in the Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, the Providence Journal and other newspapers across the country. His thoughts on dining and travel have been published in the Wine Spectator, The Wine News, Wine & Spirits, Cigar Aficionado, Washington Flyer and other magazines.

Giliberti has traveled throughout the vineyards of Europe and United States and has written widely on subjects related to wine and the culture of food and wine throughout the world. Although he loves wines of all kinds, his 2,000-bottle personal wine collection focuses on the great red wines of Bordeaux, and more particularly, the classified growths of the Medoc, Graves, St-Emilion and Pomerol, as well as the great reds of Italy and the whites of Burgundy. He began his journalism career as an undergraduate at Yale, covering ice hockey for WYBC, the campus radio station. He is working on a screenplay and novel based on his experiences in the world of wine.
