Our Services
Fundraisers and “Fun-raisers”
Whether you are planning a fundraising event, or simply planning some fun with friends, a hosted wine tasting offers a unique way to connect with others while learning about wine.
Consultation for Weddings and Events
Selecting the perfect wine for your special event can be daunting. But a wine consultant can work with you, your caterer and event planner to recommend wines based on food selections, event themes and budgets.
Wine Dinners
Independent restaurant owners and operators can attract new customers, increase customer loyalty, and improve reviews – all factors that contribute to increased revenue – with hosted wine dinners.
Three Simple Words: “May I suggest…”
Restaurant menus change over time, but wine lists often stay the same. Don’t miss the opportunity to enhance revenue by strategically offering wines that pair perfectly with menu offerings. As menu items change, so should wine selections. Rather than approaching the customer with “May I bring you some drinks?” staff will be empowered to ask “May I suggest…”
Education and Training
Whether you are interested in increasing your personal knowledge of wine, or you are ready to train your culinary and waitstaff team on proper wine service, an array of fully customizable educational services is available.
Hosted Tasting Groups
Tasting groups are a fun, relaxed way to explore the flavors and aromas of wines from around the world and refine your knowledge of wines while enjoying the company of others. Tasting groups may be scheduled in person or virtually.
