We've all been there...you drank Red Rose in college. Your palette then matured to White Zin by your first dinner meeting. Well, it's time to discover the sommelier inside you. We'll forgo the trip to Napa, but still enjoy a bit of wine education, and more importantly a ton of fun! From my work as a rep with a Napa winery, I will plan blind wine tastings, educational outings and help our wine community grow. You can still experience a traditional tasting room. I also throw my own monthly, the …

Please join me in my attempt to get to the heart of straigh …
