A Vino Veteran from France, Christophe Convert is world renowned for his ability to Convert (oh yeah) any wine drinker to his French Style. His tasting skills are legend and rivaled only by his brutal honesty. He owns a dire wolf named Patu, is a skilled archer and sniper, and likes to whistle while he works. Some say he whistles the tune of his people; others that he whistles in memory of all his fallen foes; and some say it’s really just the band No Doubt.
