About Bonde Fine Wine Shop
Conceived in July 2021 by Boston restaurateur and renowned sommelier Bertil Jean-Chronberg, Bonde Fine Wine is a concept in Cambridge’s Harvard Square dedicated not only to eco-responsible wines, neo-artisan wine accessories and wine books, but also creating a bespoke experience for each guest while providing wine education to the community in a light-hearted and intimate environment. The focus on sustainable, small-production American wineries gives the consumer an opportunity to understand the wealth of quality, economically accessible wines grown and made in the United States. Each month Jean-Chronberg also publishes a new edition of Zero-Two-Wine-Three-Eight, an informative online newsletter tackling various wine-related topics peppered with humor and wit, along with Casserole & Sommelier, sharing monthly recipes and wine pairings. Within the first year of opening, Bonde has received recognition in publications from the Boston Globe, Boston Common Magazine, Cambridge Day, and was awarded “Best Wine Shop” by Boston Magazine’s Best of Boston 2022.
