NO, not at all! This event provides you with a great opportunity to learn and educate yourself about the wines from California and out leadership in sustainability.

We want everyone to be comfortable at our event and encourage chic, business casual. We do ask that you do not wear any perfume and/or cologne as they can overpower the smell of the wine and some attendees may have fragrance allergies.

It is perfectly acceptable to swallow the wine at a wine tasting event. At the same time, it is also completely acceptable, and not considered offensive at all, to spit a wine out into a spittoon to control your alcohol intake. Agents and winery representatives completely understand that you can’t possibly consume all the wines you encounter at a tasting.

You can’t taste everything at a wine tasting event, so having a plan is ideal. Try dividing the tasting by type or style of wine and only taste wines that fit into that category. This will help edit your selection considerably.

For instance, only taste white wines, or only taste red wines. To refine the selection even further, taste only Pinot Noirs, or taste only Cabernet Sauvignons. Not only will this help control the quantity of wines you’ll be tasting, but you’ll also get a great education on the various styles of wine that can be made from a single grape.
