Plan to join me at the Telluride Wine Festival, on June 23-26, 2022!  If your winery has participated before then you already know it is a great event in one of the most beautiful mountain towns, where you meet high-end clientele from across the United States. 

I am hoping you are interested in showcasing your wines in one of my educational seminars, for tasting, learning and greeting an ever receptive audience.

Sign up at the REGISTRATION LINK now, and put in the code: SAWYER to get on my seminar A-list!  Please let us know if you have any questions: wine(at)sawyersomm.com
