Enjoy a guided tasting of six wines - including sparkling wines, red wine, and the new release of the 2017 vintage Rosés. Wines will be paired with cheeses and small bites. All presented wines will also be available for purchase.

Come for the rosé, stay for the laughs, and take with you a wine education experience to remember!

The Hosts

Renee Main, CSW 

Renee caught the wine bug while living in Italy during University. When returning back home she wanted to bring the appreciation for fine food and wine she enjoyed while living abroad. She became a tour guide at Robert Mondavi winery learning all about Napa’s wine history and how to walk backwards. To broaden her knowledge she took positions with wine distributors and importers in San Francisco. Renee has been studying wine and completed her WSET Level 2 and is a Certified Specialist of Wine. She has been educating others since 2008 and most recently teaching small private courses to large corporate events in the tech community. She loves demystifying wine, cheersing to others accomplishments and, of course, champagne!

Julie Albin, DipWSET

Despite being a California native, it was actually while living abroad in Australia when Julie fell in love with wine and decided to build a career in the industry. Since then, her wine and spirits projects have included business consulting, event management, trade and consumer education, importer sales, marketing & PR, and journalism. Her writing has appeared in THE PRESS (San Francisco Chronicle), Whisky Advocate, SevenFifty Daily, Liquor.com, Drink Me magazine, SOMA magazine, OZY.com, Grape Collective, and more. She holds the WSET Diploma certification and is a Certified Specialist of Wine. When she’s not tasting and discussing wine and spirits, you can find Julie volunteering with dogs at her local SF SPCA.
