Curated Tours Experiences
Our curated, bespoke tour experiences are crafted for your friend group. We work with our sommelier partners around the globe to craft wine and food tour experiences that meet the particulars needs and budgets of your group.
Why Sommeliers?
Beyond their expert knowledge, their job is to be at the forefront of their industry, knowing which wineries, restaurants, food experiences shine in their region. They often have personal connections with the people themselves. At DeWolf Food and Drink Experiences we believe the best experiences are rooted in the connection between people. Sommeliers also are accustomed to dealing with people on a daily basis. Their job is to make their guest happy.
That’s our job too.
