Wine For All
Founded by noted wine writer and humorist W. R. Tish, Wine For All ("Pairing Wine & Fun Since the 20th Century") is the leading corporate and private wine-tasting agency in the New York metro area. Tish's unique approach to wine events blends comedy, education and good taste. All events are customized to fit the venue and participants.

Corporate clients include pharmaceutical companies, financial groups and law firms; private parties have included bachelorette parties, birthday bashes and elegant private dinners. Food and wine pairing is a specialty; as Tish puts it, "I drink, therefore I am. I eat, therefore I am more."
