Jennifer Chin is the founder and principal of Strategic Wine Solutions, a boutique brand and marketing advisor to premium wineries, distillers and distributors.

Jennifer’s path to the world of wine was somewhat unconventional. Trained as a classical pianist, Jennifer had a career in strategic management consulting before discovering her passion for wine.

As the US Marketing Manager for Champagne Krug, she helped re-launch the brand and later, as Director of Marketing for Willette Wines, she learned the on-the-ground realities of fine wine distribution.

Since founding her own firm, Jennifer has led successful launches and driven growth for iconic brands such as Ceritas, G.D. Vajra, Shaw + Smith and Balcones Distilling. She also served for many years as a marketing consultant for the beloved Burgundy exporter Becky Wasserman & Co.

A strong believer in community and giving back, Jennifer, along with Peter Wasserman, launched the Godfather Foundation.  This non-profit connects young members of the wine trade with established collectors and cellars over educational tasting dinners.

Jennifer holds a BA from Northwestern University in Chicago.

“My goal is to help clients create sustainable and meaningful growth over the long-term.” – Jennifer Chin
