TESTIMONIALS

 

VIRTUAL EXperienceS

I love Erik - his personality and take on a wine tasting are refreshing and upbeat. Like that, he incorporated the drinking game by saying "Hungry"

I loved learning about the tastes he was talking about and how we don't really actually know taste. I also thought it was cool how knowledgeable he was on Wine. He was a funny and fun guy, which I can appreciate. Overall I had a great time with this Xperience.

I loved Erik's energy and enthusiasm. He was so knowledgeable in a relatable way!

Erik was very personable, funny, and charismatic! Not to mention his knowledge about the Wine was extensive and he was wonderful at using references to better comprehend his points.

Erik was so engaging, approachable and FUNNY! I liked the chosen wines and loved learning about the growing regions of the different countries. Erik is a talent that figures out the participants and speaks to them-it is not rehearsed. My new favorite host. His knowledge is boffin-someone who is very intelligent and knows a lot about a particular subject.


Taryn Johnson
Director of Events, Hungry

Erik sets the standard for professionalism. His acute attention to detail, genuine charisma, and passion for wine education makes each experience with him not only a breeze, but truly enjoyable for both the planner and clients alike. His style is totally unique, and the humor he adds to his classes make something that can be intimidating seem so accessible and fun. No matter who the client is or how large the group, everyone comes away from these experiences with high praise, and most importantly, eager to book with Erik again. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Erik to any group looking for an experience that is one-of-a-kind.
