Three bottles delivered to your door. One live tasting. And the chance to taste a brand-new Gamay before it's officially released.
Join me and Maenad Wine Co. winemaker Yvonne Irvine for an intimate virtual tasting exploring three small-production Ontario wines and the story behind one of Niagara's exciting independent producers.
No tasting room required. No wine jargon test. Just open the bottles, log on, and drink along with us from home.
THE WINES
Your tasting package includes three full bottles of Maenad wine:
2023 Cabernet Franc
2025 Rosé
2026 Gamay — PRE-RELEASE
A first taste of Maenad's new Gamay
We'll taste all three alongside Yvonne, talk about where they came from, how they were made, and get into the decisions—and occasional chaos—that happen between vineyard and bottle.
MEET YVONNE IRVINE
Yvonne Irvine is the winemaker behind Maenad Wine Co., an independent Niagara producer making small-production wines from thoughtfully sourced Ontario fruit.
Rather than a formal masterclass, this is your opportunity to actually hang out with the person who made what's in your glass.
Ask questions. Challenge us. Tell us which bottle you're opening again after the tasting.
That's the point.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Grab your spot
Your $110 tasting package includes all three bottles. Shipping is additional.
2. The wine comes to you
Your three-bottle Maenad tasting package will be shipped directly to you ahead of the event.
3. Join us live on October 13
Pour a glass, log on from home and taste alongside Yvonne and me at 7PM ET.
You'll receive your link and event details before the tasting.
THIS ISN'T A WINE CLASS.
You don't need to know anything about wine.
You don't need the right glassware.
And nobody is going to ask you to identify seventeen obscure aromas before you're allowed to enjoy your drink.
CRUSHABLE virtual tastings are designed to give you something that's increasingly difficult to get when buying a bottle of wine:
access to the person who actually made it.
You'll hear the stories behind the wines, learn something along the way and have the opportunity to ask a working winemaker whatever you've always wanted to know.
Good wine. Real conversation. Zero snobbery.
