Hi!! Okay, I promise the newsletter is rebooting and will be back VERY soon.
But while that’s happening, I just wanted to come here and give a HUGE thank you to everyone who came out and supported the first Mas Vino Please wine hangout!
It was such a blast! The music was bumping and the wine was flowing and I’m SOOOO HAPPY that we got to meet in real life! You are all angels to me and I’m in awe of the support you all showed for me, Good Clean Fun, and The Downtown Women’s Center that night. Thanks to you and your support online and off-line, we were able to raise $1,047 for the Downtown Women’s Center!!!!! YOU ARE ALL SO FREAKING AWESOME!! $100 helps support one woman with meals, health, and safety for an entire month. Every donation makes a difference, so thank you!!
The wine list I curated was thanks to Revel Wine and Good Clean Fun and highlighted woman-owned/produced wines, all from the grown and produced sustainability in California. Each wine was intended to take you on a journey of taste and place—an immersive experience that showcased different regions, flavors, and styles of production, while keeping sustainability at the forefront of their craft.
It was a beautiful journey of elegant, sultry and classic-feeling vinos. We started with a fun splash of rosé bubbles, then a citrusy sauv blanc, the sexiest orange wine you’ve ever met, a savory, velvety Syrah that will change your whole world, and finished with a merlot made to break all stigmas.
For those who were able to join and let me pour for them: I hope you loved it!! It was an honor to pour those wines for you!!
Thank you again to all the friends (new and old) and folks who came from near and far (some of you even came from San Diego—and that’s the raddest thing in the world!!). It means the world to me to see so many friendly faces and to know that this wine community we’ve built has inspired so many people on their own wine journey. Tik Tok is a wild place, but I truly believe it can be a wonderful place to foster friendship and connection—it’s brought me all to you and I am forever thankful for that! What a cool ass time to live in!
I love you a million times and I can’t wait til the next one!!
