WINE TASTINGS

From sommelier-led corporate events to private clubs and in-home tastings across the Chicago area, we curate informative, engaging, and approachable wine experiences tailored to your group.

​

As an independent wine professional, I’m not affiliated with any brand or winery—so there are no sales pitches, just genuine, personalized recommendations based on your style and preferences. We don’t sell wine—we help people appreciate it.

 

With a WSET Level 3 certification (with Merit), I take wine seriously—but always pair it with fun. Whether you're planning an in-person event in Chicagoland or a virtual tasting from anywhere, I’ll bring the world of wine to your glass.

CORPORATE WINE TASTINGS

Group gatherings are back—and what better way to entertain clients or build team connections than with an engaging, educational wine tasting right in your office?

​

Turn your tasting into a friendly competition with a blind wine challenge—teams work together to identify wines based on sight, smell, and taste. It’s a fun, interactive way to bring people together while learning something new.

​

There are plenty of ways to make your tasting both educational and memorable. Need ideas? Explore some of our favorite wine tasting themes here.

FUNDRAISING WINE TASTING EVENTS

Looking to add something extra at your next fundraiser? Make the event extra special by layering on a wine pairing with your dinner! We can work directly with the chef or caterer to assure your guests experience a well thought out food and wine pairing for each course.

COMMUNITY WINE TASTINGS

Wine tasting locations are incredibly versatile, making it easy to bring people together in a relaxed, engaging setting. Hosting a wine tasting through your private club or local parks district is a great way to build community, offer something unique to members, and encourage meaningful connections.

Whether it's an intimate evening indoors or a casual outdoor event in a community space, wine tastings can be tailored to suit the setting and audience. We provide all the essentials—including glassware, tasting notes, and expert guidance—so your group can focus on enjoying great wine and good company.

From seasonal themes to regional explorations or blind tastings, we’ll work with you to create a memorable experience that fits your club or community’s goals and vibe.
