NEVER. There’s no pretense, no gatekeeping, and no promises on keeping my language PG. I promise no judgement and I will never yuck your yum! The vibe is relaxed, welcoming, and meant to be fun. Because fun is the whole point.

For sure! My events are for curious drinkers at every level. I’ll walk you through everything in an approachable, no-pressure way so you can relax, learn something new, and actually enjoy what’s in your glass.

Absolutely. While these events are designed to be approachable for all knowledge levels, I know how to read the room and I don’t skimp on substance. Both newcomers and professionals get thoughtful, deep-dive context on whatever topic we’re exploring.

Of course! For me, wine is all about community. These events are a chance to connect with fellow wine lovers, and maybe even leave with a few new friends.

True story: I’ve watched a group of solo attendees arrive as strangers, bond over a few glasses, and then head straight to a bar together after our tasting. That’s the magic.

It’s a little of both! You’ll definitely learn something new, but it won’t feel like a lecture or a test (and I swear there’s no homework). Think real education, plenty of conversation, and a relaxed, social vibe where you can sip and ask questions freely.

NEVER. Let’s be honest, we all hate a sales push.

Sure, part of my job is selling wine, so I may mention a special bottle, a discount, or a wine that pairs perfectly with a dish you’re making, but I will never pressure you, make you feel awkward, or try to guilt you into buying.

My events are about tasting, learning, and having a damn good time with your community, not encouraging you to part with your money.
