DON'T BE BORING
It's not enough just to have a meeting anymore.
Remind your team why they chose the company they work for by putting 'fun' back into the word 'function'.
"So. . .have you ever gone to that company networking event and just felt like something was missing? Or perhaps you have planned a team building exercise that just flopped - completely missing the ultimate goal? I have been to many of those events and have vowed to never torture my clients and their guests." - Lamar Engel

Sensory
Wine Tasting Experience

Intimate, friendly and one of our most sought after experiences. Our sommeliers will dive into an in-depth custom sensory wine experience featuring various levels of aromatic and flavor discovery. Journey in your guided tasting through a series of aromas being represented by individual components creating a parallel connection to the wines they correlate with. Also engage in a discovery of balance when guided through a series of flavor experiments that open up the dialogue of tannin and the relationship of wines with food. Both incredibly memorable and practical studies of wine for guests to enjoy.
