Meet Lourdes: Wine Expert and Educator

Hi! I’m Lourdes of the Vine.

My wine journey began in 2010. I'm a Level 3 Certified Wine & Spirits specialist through WSET, but my true wine expertise developed through retail management and a passion for helping people discover their own vino confidence.

LOTV is all about sharing my wine knowledge with enthusiasts like you. I'm not here to be a “wine influencer” – my goal is to help you curate special wine events that are interactive, educational, and inclusive.

I’m passionate about showcasing unique, sustainable wines that aren't mass-produced, encouraging exploration beyond big-box retail options. I love sharing the story behind the wine I pour.

Follow my wine adventures on Instagram @lourdesofthevine and check out some of my article features here.

Head over to the Wine Services page for more details on my wine event offerings.

Thanks for reading – I look forward to sharing wine with you!

P.S. I love working with local retailers, so if you have a favorite spot, let’s collaborate to get the wines from there!
