Just like a great wine flight, balance is everything. These are the daily supplements I pair with real life — for energy, focus, gut health, and glow. No gimmicks, just tried-and-true essentials that help me stay sharp between tastings, client dinners, and travel. Think of this as my wellness sommelier cheat sheet ✨

Whether I’m swirling a glass in the tasting room or chasing golden hour on a patio, these are the shoes carrying me through it all. Comfortable enough for vineyard strolls, cute enough for sunset spritzes

This is my warm-weather wardrobe because even off duty, I know how to pair a vibe. Equal parts Napa casual and Hamptons-adjacent, this list is for golden hour tastings, farmer’s market strolls, wine club drop-offs, and sunset drinks that somehow turn into dinner. Always chic, never trying too hard.

This is everything I pull when I want the vibe to say “just another Thursday in Napa” without actually lifting a finger (besides to open a $300 bottle). From stemware that whispers I know what I’m doing to mood lighting that makes everyone look five years younger — this list is your shortcut to hosting a wine dinner that feels private, polished, and a quiet flex.

Before the wine starts flowing, the coffee does. These are my go-to mugs and morning must-haves that turn bleary-eyed inbox scrolling into a ritual worth savoring.

Looks for when I’m closing wine deals from the course and sipping Chard at the clubhouse. Vineyard casual meets country club chic — because who says you can’t wear a skort and still outdrive the men?

When I’m not swirling, sipping, or sourcing rare allocations, you’ll find me in these off-duty comfy staples. Equal parts effortless, elevated, and lounge-approved

Here’s how I stay polished while bouncing between NYC, Napa and Miami — texting clients with one hand and gripping espresso like it’s a Howell Mountain Cab

These are my go-tos for a full day of sipping, swirling and socializing, because who has time for touch ups inbetween tastings?
