Happy Springtime!
Here in Phoenix, our 6 weeks of "winter" have vaporized, and it's time to put aside the osso
buco and Cabernet in favor of fragrant Viognier and juicy
Beaujolais-Villages.
Spring is all about renewal and new chapters, and indeed -
the Renaissance Wine Academy
is no exception! We are spreading wine education awareness all over the Greater Phoenix
Area and beyond - including three appearances in Arizona Bride magazine's "Ask the Expert" column, as well as a column written about my Paris wine competition adventure in The Spirit World. Most recently, I worked with W Magazine from NYC and Women
& Wine from California as the Sommelier at the Guess/Marciano boutique opening here in Scottsdale. Thank you to ALL of you who came out for that happening event!
On a professional development note, I have diligently been
working on AusWISE , the Australian Wine Bureau's educator program and will be expanding our programs about the wines from Down Under.
One of our most important projects is the ongoing development of a course series to offer to the public, in addition to our private and corporate client events. Stay tuned for a supplemental edition to this newsletter,
coming very soon, which will feature that calendar.
In the meantime, I will be guest speaking to these groups, open to anyone who registers.
And now, just sit back and enjoy our Spring-themed articles, tips,
and announcements below...and remember, Spring is the perfect time to turn a new
leaf and try a new wine!
Cheers!
