Jonny Cigar lives between Los Angeles and Napa Valley, and is the alias of one Jonathan Cristaldi. Timeout New York named him a “Wine Prophet,” and he continues to spread the good word through his various writing projects, which you can follow on Winetology.com. Cigar’s alias, Jonathan Cristaldi, is the Deputy Editor of Tasting Panel Magazine. Cigar has dark history in avant-garde theater. This is what happened when he began hosting wine events: The Noble Rot
