Elevate Your Brand with a Wine Enthusiast Event

Wine Enthusiast brings wine to life by hosting various events throughout the year geared toward wine consumers and industry professionals alike.

These events provide opportunities for attendees to taste and discover new wines and learn about different regions, styles, and producers. In addition to tastings, many events also feature food pairings, social media-centric activations, and educational seminars led by industry experts. The crown jewel of the events portfolio is the annual Wine Star Awards black-tie gala celebrating industry luminaries.

Wine Enthusiast’s Wine Star Awards

The annual Wine Star Awards is the ultimate “who’s who” of the wine and spirits industry, where celebrated individuals and their peers come together for one night. During this black-tie gala, members of the trade can network with iconic industry luminaries.

Wine Enthusiast’s Sip Tasting Experience Series

Wine Enthusiast’s Sip event series gives wine brands exclusive exposure to industry leaders, media, trade professionals, and refined wine consumers. Currently focusing on South America and Italy, these one-of-a-kind events help attendees discover your wines while celebrating the cultures of these countries in a lively and engaging atmosphere. We handle all logistics, from invitations to on-site management, ensuring a seamless event execution.

At these tasting experiences, wineries can pour a selection of their wines that received a 90+ rating or a Best Buy designation from Wine Enthusiast. We will also include a trade-only panel before the trade walk-around tasting session led by Wine Enthusiast personalities.

Master Classes

Host a master class led and curated by a Wine Enthusiast reviewer. During these classes, trade professionals will discover the unique offerings in your portfolio, gaining a new and in-depth perspective of your wines.

The reviewer will guide attendees through the nuances of your wines’ diverse expressions, one at a time. During the presentation, brand representatives can join the discussion by sharing insights and stories behind these wines. Each class concludes with a post-class reception where light refreshments and the wines showcased during the class are served, allowing your team to network and foster better relationships with industry tastemakers.
