Wine tastings

Wine tasting, your way.

A guided tasting brought to your home, office, or wherever you're gathering. We handle the wine, the glassware, the hosting, and the details — you enjoy the night.

How it works

We host so you don't have to.

Every tasting is designed to be engaging, fun, and easy to follow — whether you're completely new to wine or already know your way around a bottle. Your Sips Somm hosts the evening from setup through cleanup, guiding the tasting without turning it into a lecture.

Make it yours

Your tasting, your rules.

Our packages are a starting point, not a rulebook. We can tailor the wines and theme to your guests, your occasion, and whatever you're in the mood to explore.

Explore a region

Dreaming of Tuscany? Curious about Sicily? Build a tasting around a country, region, or place you've always wanted to explore.

Find your kind of wine

Focus on favorite grapes, discover new styles, explore all whites, or skip the reds. We'll help find bottles that fit your group's tastes.

Make it personal

Celebrate a destination wedding, a favorite bottle, or a special milestone with a theme that means something to you.
