I contacted Betty to arrange a special wine tasting lunch for my wife's birthday. We included a couple that similarly are wine novices. Our goal was a nice visit to Temecula wine country and a beginner's level experience. We want someone to educate us and not talk down to us. Betty and her husband delivered! We had a fantastic experience under her guidance and learn some basics of wine tasting and pairing. Betty was genuine with her knowledge sharing and we never felt talked down to. The facility for the event was a very nice local Vinyard and we even got to meet the owner. It was picturesque and comfortable. We came away with a few bottles of wine and a desire to learn more with future events. Thanks, Betty!

Our hosts, husband and wife team Chris and Christy, were warm and welcoming from the start. Chris' wine pairings and explanations complemented the insanely delicious food perfectly, and were educational yet unpretentious. They graciously accommodated all dietary restrictions and served a beautiful 5 course meal (with gorgeous wine pairings, of course). Having an intimate dinner with strangers was also a delight! We cheers'ed, laughed, bonded, ate and drank to our hearts' content and had a total blast. Looking forward to another special evening with Home Somm in the near future! A Home Somm dinner would also make a wonderful gift for anyone (who likes food and good times)!

Karen was wonderful in guiding our team of 18 (or so) through the steps in painting our masterpieces, and the wine wasn't bad too. For a team building exercise, this was a good experience.

Already thinking of signing up for the National Wine Day event in February. Highly recommend. Enjoy some painting, camaraderie, and some wine.

Karen, the owner, has a wonderful way of making everyone feel comfortable, regardless of their artistic ability. She provided clear, step-by-step instruction throughout the painting session and created an environment that was both relaxed and engaging. By the end of the evening, everyone was pleased by what they had created. The studio is bright, clean, and well organized, making it easy for guests to mingle and enjoy the experience. Karen also helped coordinate a beautiful charcuterie spread, and her wine selections were excellent. It was clear that a great deal of thought went into every detail of the event. What stood out most was Karen's hospitality and attention to her guests. She struck the perfect balance between guiding the class and allowing everyone to simply enjoy themselves. The time passed quickly, and there was plenty of laughter along the way. If you're looking for a unique and memorable venue for a team event, celebration, or gathering with friends, I highly recommend Inspired Art Wine. Our group had an amazing experience!

We recently took a trip up to Sonoma and Meghan facilitated our tastings with several wineries and we could not have been more pleased with our experience! She has connections to many top wine makers all over and she passes on those benefits to her clients. We feel lucky to have met her and we will continue to use her services for all our future wine country trips as well as local wine maker tastings/dinners. We think she should be an honorary family member!
