About Us


WHAT WE DO

Wine Folly is a culture site offering articles and videos that will connect you to the world of wine. We’re in Seattle but travel around the world to curate the best wine values and the most awesome stories about wineries, regions and winemakers.  Are you a winemaker and want to get involved? Tell us about what you’re doing.


WINE TASTING GROUP

COMING SOON. Access to the wine tasting group will be for those who want to learn about wine in the comfort of their own home. A monthly subscription to the tasting group is less than the cost of a latte. Sign up to the newsletter to get access as soon as it goes live.

Sommelier

As a kid, I could smell a watermelon being cut in the kitchen from my bedroom, a sensory superpower. Since then, I love to stick my nose into wine glasses, wine books, and other people’s business…that is, if they want to learn more about wine.
