 In a large mixing bowl, blend together the white wine, vermouth, parsley, basil, oregano, and red pepper flakes.
Add the garlic and celery, and mix to coat. With a slotted spoon, transfer the coated vegetables to a slow cooker.
Add the chicken pieces to the remaining herb and wine mixture and coat well.
Place the chicken on top of the vegetables in the slow cooker. Sprinkle the lemon juice and peel over the top of the chicken.
Pour the rest of the wine and herb mixture over the top of the chicken.
