One of my favorite things to do is mix wine education with fun.  I had the opportunity to be a guest at a client's birthday party, providing wine information to her friends and family throughout the night.  We had a blast!

 "My birthday party, the most important event of the year for me, was made extra special this year by the presence of the sophisticated, knowledgeable, helpful professional sommelier, Michael Bottigliero. The selections of wines and cheeses that he recommended for my party, were absolutely delightful, unique, and accessible cost-wise to all of my friends. His flexible attitude allowed me to suggest that we organize some wine trivia for the party and he came up with some great questions that stumped everyone! Many friends made special notice of Michael's passion for wine and wine education - he was open to receiving any number of questions and responded to each one with much enthusiasm. 

Overall, my party was exactly what I wanted. A relaxed, casual environment, wine education, socializing and mingling and all while slowly but surely getting a little tipsy!"
