“Erin poured wine for my mom’s 70th birthday and she made the party so much more fun! We had around 40 people at our house, Erin was able to work with the space to make it work.

Erin was a great communicator and well organized. She helped work through all the details before the event, showed up early on the day of the event, and was well prepared. There was a wide variety of ages and Erin connected well with all of them. She is very knowledgeable about wine, the guests loved having her available to talk to and ask questions. We’d absolutely go with her again for future events! Thanks, Erin for helping make it a very special day!”

Ben and Darcy Brown, Private Event Clients

“Erin takes wine students through the world of wine in a fun, whimsical, and down-to-earth style. Erin’s love of wine is absolutely infectious and you will find yourself becoming as much of a wine nerd as she is after taking her classes.”

Ammiel Tanski, Owner of The Wine Cellar

“As a wine producer and educator myself, I have worked with Erin Young in both settings. At winery events, she is a pleasure to work with as she amazes and delights guests. As a teaching assistant for my classes in the Wine Certificate Program at Cal Poly Humboldt, Erin interacts and shares stories in an easy-going, relaxed style that lifts and elevates the group learning. Erin Young has that unique blend of passion, understanding and curiosity required for success as a wine industry consultant and educator. Wine history is vast, the styles varied and the trends ever changing. Erin’s genuine love of wine is obvious and infectious. I couldn’t think of a better consultant and educator. I only wish I had a full-time position for her in my small winery.”
