Think screw caps mean cheap wine? Think again! This myth has been around for too long—time to twist off the truth. Many high-end wines now wear screw caps to avoid cork taint. It’s not about price—it’s about protection.

Tag a wine snob who still insists that corks are the only approved closure and let’s bring ‘em into the 21st century. Cheers to smarter sipping!

POV: You didn’t have to finish the bottle…But you did it for the wine. Because wasting wine? We don’t do that. #RespectTheVine

Ever picked a wine because the label had a cute do

Ever picked a wine because the label had a cute dog on it? Or saved sparkling with a spoon and called it science? You’re not alone—and you’re exactly who I love working with.

Wine doesn’t have to be intimidating. It should be fun, approachable, and just a little fabulous. Let’s make your wine journey sparkle.

Find out more at thewinecoach.com or DM me to get started.

When I started my business, I thought I needed the entire map. Turns out, all I really needed was to take the first step (and maybe a little caffeine & wine). The biggest lesson? You don’t have to know it all—you just have to begin. Clarity comes with action. Confidence comes with doing. So if you’re waiting for the perfect plan... consider this your sign to start messy.

Want to level up your imported wine game? Here’s the move:
Flip the bottle.
Find the importer.
Love the wine? Follow the importer like your new favorite band. Because when they have good taste once… odds are, they’ll do it again.

This is the cheat code some wine snobs don’t want you to know (but I do). I’m here to spill more than wine!

Wait… so organic grapes don’t always mean organic wine? In this clip from The Sipping Point, I’m talking with Laura Barrett Winemaker at Clif Family Winery (yes, that Clif) about the behind-the-scenes of wine labeling—and why your “healthy” pour might need a second look.

Grab a glass, lean in, and sip on this truth. Full episode LINK IN BIO

Need a mood boost? 🤚🏼 Hang with your dog. Seriously. They don’t judge, they don’t gossip, and they’re always down to party (or nap).

Thanks Baby Mae…I needed that! She’s an Aussie Doodle BTW…let me know more about your pup. Post pics in comments.

Even wine educators need a little caffeine boost—preferably shaken with vodka. Took a Sunday detour from wine to the cocktail shaker to level up with an espresso martini class. Because education doesn’t stop at vino… and neither do my taste buds.
