With her knowledge, Wellie hopes to share her love of the beautiful wine regions & the hard working people that make the gorgeous wines we get to enjoy. Telling their personal stories of back-breaking work & devoted passion, one glass at a time.
Poetic Justice
“My goal as a sommelier is to bring poetic justice to the quality wines/winemakers that are often overlooked for the bulk juice that floods our grocery stores & restaurants. Most big brands throw around marketing money bribing big chains & spend more effort on creating hype, than focusing on what’s in the bottle, which is ultimately what really matters, right? They treat wine as if they’re making Coca-Cola for consumers that “talk dry but drink sweet”. Now is the time for a change in the wine industry. Follow my journey as I bring virtuous winemakers to light.” -Wellie
