What Guests Are Saying About These Experiences With Sommelier Ferdinando

And Ferdy, you were simply wonderful. As someone on our team put it, "Ferdy was great, he really convinced me I was on vacation for a minute.... and now I need to 1) make whatever that delicious caper, eggplant pasta he was talking about was. 2) plan a trip to Sicily."
Jason
02/16/2022
We’ve received feedback from all of our attendees and the resounding conclusion was that it was an epic event. Everyone loved the wine and Ferdy carried the show. Thanks for helping us get the tasting together in such a short period of time. Appreciated!

What an incredible evening! We had so much fun and the whole group did as well. The feedback we received from Aly Walansky was incredible. She’s probably been to 100 of these and she’s seen the whole spectrum of events, so her saying this was great really means a lot! Thank you so much for your help pulling this off. Truly a great event!
Jennifer

Thank you so very much for all you did to make tonight’s event a success! The chat, as well as our emails and texts, were flooded with positive comments and incredible praise for Ferdy! All because of you, Ferdy, our supporters learned so much about wine and now you are being requested at all our future HSUS events!! :) We would be delighted to work with you again anytime! We had a quick Facetime with Kitty right after the event ended and she was really happy. Thanks again for making this possible. We truly cannot do the work we do for animals without partners like you who help make it happen. I hope you all feel proud now that it’s over and are enjoying some wine to celebrate.
