Gather some friends for your own private wine tasting party! Join us for a guided virtual wine tasting experience and enjoy a virtual trip around Europe. Jessi Trauth, owner of Jessi’s Wine & Goods, will lead you through an exploration of dynamic wines of great character, rich with stories of place, time, and artful vinification from some of Europe’s most exciting wine regions. Jessi’s exceptional knowledge of wines from around the world will educate and entertain while you enjoy these specially curated wines.

She is thrilled to offer wine and goods produced by the most ethical, talented, and dedicated producers around the globe.
