Wine Pairing for the Holidays with Vicki Miller

During Episode 9 of Gatherings Podcast we talk with Vicki Miller, the founder of Vinocity about wine pairing for the holidays. Actually, we start by asking about wines for the holiday and end up asking every question we've ever had about wine when it comes to party hosting. Just for you. (Alright, alright, and a little bit for us.) Vicki Miller is a long-time student and teacher of wine. She was a practicing attorney in Philadelphia for 16 years at a major U.S. firm and has studied wine for over 20 years. She is WSET Level 3 Wines & Spirits Certified. Five years ago Vicki founded Vinocity and began teaching about wine. Vinocity plans and hosts wine tasting events for corporate clients, non-profit institutions, and associations, but with a unique approach. Vinocity events combine the educational aspects of a wine course with the socially engaging aspects of a wine tasting with friends. These events tell the rich story of wine, from the grapes, to technology, to the natural perils that challenge the winemaker. Guests gain information they can use the next time they select a wine and a few stories they can tell at their next cocktail party.
