In Healdsburg, THE VARIETAL SHOW Talks about brilliant Italian-style wines made in America with Mark Orsi of Orsi Family Vineyards! This is where the Festa Italia took place last month with 30 wineries and over 60 grape varieties. We taste and discuss some of those together: Biancolella d’Ischia, Montepulciano & Schioppettino.

In memory of a great man who passed away this week: It was an honor and a privilege to share wine with John Vicini of Trecini Winery!
Join Sawyer Somm with Proprietor John Vicini, of Sonoma County-based Trecini Winery, as we taste through his family sourced Italian wine collection: Vermentino from Sardinia, Prosecco-Brut, Spumante Brut, Barbera D’Asti, and Trinità Montepulciano d’Abruzzo Riserva. The Varietal Show sits down at The Union Hotel in Santa Rosa for a special discussion of John’s heritage, the wines and some mouth watering pairings!

So happy to share this Napa Valley Register article by columnist Eduardo Dingler (and some of my pictures!) about our recent private wine tasting at the home 
of Don Sebastiani.
Every month, Keith Casale and I orchestrate a wine theme and food pairing to dazzle a table-full of people. October featured Amarone, read more at the link below!
