IG VS REALITY food for thought ... I recently had the pleasure of meeting a long time wine blogger friend in real life who I’ve been “Insta friends” with for YEARS now. It didn’t take long for her to see the real Sam; AKA loud, weird, super affectionate, ridiculously clumsy, awkward dancer, bourbon obsessed, and just overall for lack of a better word, A SPAZ ‍♀️ She told me she did not expect this personality from me based on what she’s seen online, she thought I was this always perfectly poised Sommelier! I laughed because I knew I am far from perfect and was thankful she finally got to see the REAL me and pretty sure we became even better friends because of it ‍♀️ Don’t get me wrong, I’m a wine professional and business owner so of course there is always a time and place for being a complete goofball and when to take it down a notch; but this opened my eyes to really wanting to continue to share a bit more often on what goes on “behind the scenes” of my ever so curated Samantha Sommelier IG feed! My goal is for you to not only see and feel that I’m a fun and approachable Somm in real life but can see that on here as well! Especially for my friends who I don’t have the pleasure of always getting to meet in the FLESH! So swipe over for a more candid pic of me in my element enjoying an Old Fashioned, not wine OOPS, oh and if you swipe again you’ll see me being a crazy person with my newphew ‍♀️ Comment below and let me know if you’ve made it to the end of this and maybe that will inspire me to post more BTS pics hehe Cheers loves Sam ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ : @marcodelarca womeninwine #wineenthusiast #foodandwinemagazine #instawine #makewinefunagain #roséallday #wineblogger #winefolly #creativecocktails #winepairings #simpleliving #easyrecipes #womeninwine #socialmediahacks #wineeducation #scottsdaleblogger #samanthasommelier #winetips #winewriter #winetravel #wineinstagram

Change the perspective, enjoy wine

I had my first-ever booth for the @onlinewinecourse yesterday at @wineriot! I had a ring toss game, where guests had to “earn” each ring by asking me one of the 6 questions about the course. If they tossed it on one of the bottles, they got to spin the prize wheel! So much fun. Honestly such an amazing time, thanks for having me Erik and Arden!!!

IG FAM! Question! Would you rather have white wine warm or red wine cold? Comment below . . . Friendly tip: higher drinking temperature increases perceived alcohol content thus making the wine less balanced.¯\_(ツ)_/¯ . Serve dry white wine chilled at 8-12 C/ 45-55 F (☞ ☞ it’s 3 hours in the fridge). And red wine at 16-18 C/55 - 65F (~room/cellar temperature).
