The experience was really exquisite! Jen was very friendly and engaging with our group, even as we sipped more and more wine. Her set up and tear down was very hands-off on our part, and she made sure to service without a burden to us. Communication in advance and day of was helpful, and we were able to precure all the necessities in advance (in this case, wine).
Her knowledge on wine was great - this gave the whole group an opportunity to pick her brain about the making and differences in wine, and approaches to tasting that we probably would not get in a larger setting elsewhere. Jen did very well to engage us and was personable - she indulged a lot of tipsy questions and inquiries!
We'd recommend this experience and Jen to anyone shy but excited to give in to their wine curiosity !
Thank you

We all LOVED JEN! She did a great job and everyone had a great time. She was so patient with the chattering and distracted guests which I really appreciated. I highly recommend her!
As for the wine pairing experience, I really think that Cozymeal should charge a flat amount for a certain number of people. It doesn't make great sense to me that the rate is $55 per person when I am paying for the wine. After I have already paid for 10 people to come and then add 3 more, what is the extra $165 getting me or costing cozymeal? That part felt like a value issue and then I'd feel better about using Cozymeal in the future.

I gave this to my husband for his 55th birthday-- it was lovely. Jen was friendly, knowledgeable, interesting, and there was very little prep work that I had to do.

Jen came to my family's home to do a private wine class for us. It was delightful! She is incredibly knowledgeable about all things wine and her love for the subject is apparent. We learned a ton and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

A wonderful Sommelier and an even better person. Jen is extremely knowledgeable and she truly cares about what she does. She helped my husband and I pick out a few wines for our wedding rehearsal and they were the second most talked about subject of the night! I highly recommend Jen for anyone looking to have a great experience, learn new things, and meet an amazing individual.

Jen is amazing! She makes learning about wine and drinking it way more enjoyable with her knowledge and friendliness. She'll take what you like about a wine and find new unique wines you've never heard of and they're always so delicious. I would recommend her a thousand times over if you're planning on having a wine testing event or if you need any great recommendations!
