From the department of “so much time and so little to do”…

The year is finally back in full swing and I’m stoked to be playing so much music this season!

The BioDynamic Band featuring Katie White will be making its first Meyerland area appearance this Sunday 2/16, 3-5pm, at Emmit’s Place (South Post Oak and Benning).

This is a family-friendly show and will also feature a band from our girls’ middle school. Super talented kids btw. $5 cover, family-friendly food and drinks, adult beverages for the rest of us.

Click here to buy tickets and tickets can also be purchased at the door.

On Sunday 2/23, 4-6pm, we will be returning to Vinsanto for our monthly gig and the wine bar’s second anniversary!

For those who have never been to one of our shows, it’s my dream gig: great wine and food paired with jams from the 80s and 70s.

NO COVER and Riccardo always has a special btg white, rosé, and red. The pinsa at Vinsanto is fantastic and our girls LOVE the chef’s hand-cut fries.

And now the wine…

On Monday, March 3, I will be presenting a series of seminars at the 11th annual Taste of Italy trade fair in Houston, presented by my client, the Italy-America Chamber of Commerce.

The “Texas BBQ and Italian Wine” seminar always sells out really quickly so be sure to reserve your spot now.

This is a wonderful event and a great opportunity to taste and meet with Italian producers who are working here or working to get their products here.

And while I’ll be missing the Slow Wine date in New York this year (thank you Susannah for covering for me!), I’ll be pouring and leading seminars for the Abruzzo consortium at all the other stops in Boston 3/5, Washington D.C. 3/6, Denver 3/10, and Los Angeles 3/12.

My seminars are really fun and Slow Wine is always a great occasion to connect with like-minded wine and food folks. I really enjoy the tour.

Register for any and of all of the events here.

Thanks for your support!
