About
I’m an experienced wine sommelier with over 25 years in the industry, known for making wine fun, approachable, and informative. I’ve hosted wine events from intimate gatherings of 15 guests to large experiences with up to 2,500 attendees.
I specialize in corporate and in-home wine tastings, always paired with cheeses and charcuterie platters. My fee is a service fee only.
Please note:
- I do NOT supply or purchase wine, beer, liquor, or any alcohol
- I do NOT provide catering or full food service (drop-offs only, with a minimum) we do not provide food trucks.
- There is an event time minimum, and travel time may be added based on distance
If you’re looking for a professional, engaging wine experience for your group, I’d be happy to help you plan the perfect tasting.

I have participated in several wine tasting events hosted by PhilUPwithWine. Philip's passion for wine along with his extensive experience in the hospitality industry has given him a
broad range of knowledge in the many aspects of wine, from vine to glass. He is well versed in varietals, regions, appellations and skill in assessing a wine's characteristics. He conveys these aspects in his events with charisma and enthusiasm, providing an enjoyable wine tasting experience from start to finish. I highly recommend PhilUPwithWine for your wine tasting events!
