Holiday Party Wine Tastings Your Team Will Actually Remember

Sommelier-led holiday tastings in Detroit and Chicago, or virtual nationwide.

Two Ways to Celebrate

In Person in Detroit and Chicago

Michael and his team run the tasting at your office, home or venue. Choose a seated, guided tasting for smaller groups, or walk-around tasting stations for parties of up to 200. See our Detroit and Chicago pages for more.

Virtual, Anywhere in the US

Each guest gets a tasting kit at their door, then your group joins a live, 60-minute session on Zoom or any video platform. Ideal for remote and hybrid teams, or clients you want to thank in several cities. See virtual tastings.
