About

I offer wine tastings experiences for clients who really want to learn the wonderful world of wine (30 people or less) and 10 ppl minimum. I’ll help you pick the right tasting for your guests. Example tasting would be wines of France ( we can taste wines from different regions in France). I’m also certified in spirits as well. Bourbon tastings has been very popular last couple of years. If you are also looking for a chef to create a fantastic meal , I’m a trained chef as well. I’m offering a 10% discount to cash customers.

I hired Rob for a corporate event in Orlando, his responsiveness was unmatched in the planning stages - which I was very grateful for due to the short notice of the event! Our guests were so happy with his expertise and entertainment. He is extremely reliable and professional - I would 1000% percent hire him again! Thank you for making our event a success Rob!

Rob from the very start when I was booking him was a complete professional. He asked me details about the wine tasting that I hosted for my friends. I told him I wanted to learn about French wines. He arrived early to set up. The charcuterie spread he put together was so impressive. He added dates wrapped in bacon and cheese as a surprise. He brought cheese and crackers and other good stuff. He provided 6 wines. 2 Rose, 2 White and 2 Reds. We learned so much about the different grapes I wish I can remember it all. He mixed in trivia questions that made the night more fun. My friends were so impressed by him they want to hire him again for another event. Thanks Rob for a memorable fun filled wine night.
