The following is a list of services for you to choose from. Whether you're looking for a private wine event or an in home culinary class, I will choose the most appropriate wines and the best ingredients to make each experience one to remember. Please contact me for a sample menu or wine list and pricing information.

WINE TASTING:
Enjoy a private wine tasting including discussions about how wine is made, tasting wine, various grape varieties, differences between new and old world wines, and wine pairing suggestions. Six wines will be tasted.
Number of guests: 2 - unlimited
Cost: Please contact me for a quote.

BLIND TASTING COMPETITION:
This is a similar event to the wine tasting in which you'll learn about wine basics. Guests break up into groups and will be given 3 flights of 2-3 wines each. Groups will use tasting notes to match each wine with a grape variety and then answer 2 questions in-between each flight. This format makes for a fun and educational event: allowing the group to participate and learn the basics. After each flight we will reveal the wines.

THE OCCASIONAL MEAL
