About The Corporate Sommelier

Welcome to The Corporate Sommelier, a blog created specifically to help busy professionals learn more about wine in the corporate world.

I have a passion for wine that I want to share with other executives, managers, and employees navigating wine in business settings. As an IT leader by day, I understand the demands of the corporate lifestyle. But as a Certified Sommelier with the Court of Master Sommeliers, WSET Diploma candidate, Certified Specialist of Wine, and Certified Sommelier with the Canadian Association of Professional Sommeliers, I also have in-depth knowledge of wines that I can impart to help you build your wine IQ.

On this blog, you’ll find tips and insights to help you:

• Select appropriate wines for business dinners, client gifts, company events, and more
• Learn proper wine service, tasting techniques, and food pairings
• Develop your ability to describe and discuss wine knowledgeably with colleagues and clients
• Build wine knowledge on varietals, regions, styles, pricing, and values
• Create wine-focused events and experiences to boost morale, thank employees, and attract talent
• Incorporate wine into your corporate culture seamlessly and appropriately

I created The Corporate Sommelier to share my passion for wine specifically with other busy professionals like me. The corporate world comes with its own unique needs and considerations when it comes to wine. This blog will address those needs and help you enhance your wine IQ, no matter your current level of knowledge.

I invite you to pour a glass and explore the blog. Here’s to learning about wine in the corporate landscape!
