Focus of the Month: New Company Name

Our wine consulting company has experienced a lot of growth this year. Demand in professionally guided wine tasting experiences and any type of education or speciality requests related to wine are high. In this we are the national market leader.

To continue the nationwide rollout of our sommelier expertise offerings, we are changing our company name from "The Wine Elite Sommelier Company" to the simpler "The Sommelier Company", you can visit the new website here

The Southern California local tasting societies continue to run under the name "Wine Elite Society", with separate websites that you'll find below.

This newsletter will continue to serve as a monthly invitation to contact us for your wine expertise needs, and we will share fundamental principles on wine appreciation and philosophy with you.
