We had the absolute pleasure of having Rocco as the sommelier for our recent party, and he was nothing short of phenomenal! From the moment he arrived, his warm personality and extensive wine knowledge set the tone for an unforgettable evening. Rocco was not only incredibly knowledgeable about the wines but also had a wonderful way of educating us in a fun and engaging manner. Our guests were captivated by his stories and insights, making the experience both entertaining and enlightening. He was the highlight of our evening and truly elevated our event to something extraordinary. Thank you, Rocco, for creating such a memorable experience for us and our guests. We can’t wait to work with you again in the future! Grazie Mille Rocco!

I’d recommend Rocco 1000x times over. He provided so much knowledge and charm to my wine tasting event. His sense of humor and ability to work the crowd was amazing. Not only did my guests leave with new knowledge about wine, they were thoroughly entertained and pleased with Rocco’s presentation. The wines are also delicious and very generously poured. His punctuality and communication leading up to my event was also commendable. An amazing sommelier!

Rocco really helped me in a pinch! I needed to find a Som with a weeks notice and Rocco was flexible enough to take my event in addition to another event he had in place already!! He is super knowledgeable and humorous, too. I loved that he made wine tasting feel less stuffy and made it fun with trivia and jokes. I highly recommend Rocco.

We had the pleasure of hosting a wine tasting event in our home for our daughter's 30th birthday, and Rocco, the sommelier, made it an unforgettable experience. From start to finish, Rocco's expertise and passion for wine were evident, and his ability to engage and educate our guests was remarkable. Despite having attended numerous wine tastings, my wife and I were blown away by Rocco's depth of knowledge and his ability to make the evening both informative and enjoyable. He took the time to explain the nuances of each wine, answer our questions with patience, and share fascinating stories about the regions and vineyards they came from. Rocco's warm and approachable demeanor made everyone feel at ease, and his enthusiasm for wine was truly contagious. Our guests were thoroughly impressed, and many commented on how much they learned and enjoyed the tasting. If you're considering hiring a sommelier for any event, we wholeheartedly recommend Rocco. His professionalism, charisma, and unparalleled expertise will elevate your wine tasting experience to a whole new level. Thank you, Rocco, for making our daughter's birthday celebration so special!
