Services

The Drunken Grape® is an event, promotional and media company focused on wine, spirits and beer themes. Events include interactive tastings, niche event planning and execution for private parties, wine and beer dinners, weddings, and corporate and charitable events. Our team consists of sommeliers and beer sommeliers.

Experience the Best of Both Worlds with Our Tasting Events

In a world where remote work and cost-consciousness have presently taken centre stage, our virtual tasting events offer an exciting way to engage, inspire, and appreciate your staff, no matter where they are. Dive into a world of flavours and camaraderie without the need for corporate travel and lodging expenses.

But for those who crave the ultimate in interaction, our live tasting events offer a truly immersive experience. Keep regional organizations engaged and energized with these dynamic gatherings. It's where flavours meet fun and engagement knows no bounds.

Featured Virtual and Live Tasting Parties

Hosting a virtual, hybrid or live tasting party (wine, spirits or beer) is also tremendous for team building, happiness, and inclusiveness.

Make sure to reach out to The Drunken Grape® at info@thedrunkengrape.com for a discussion on how to implement this.

Media

We are experts at gaining much greater exposure for your winery, brewery or distillery through direct video branding with our subject matter expert as well as our experts in photography and videography.  The pandemic has shown just how important this is, especially at a time where many wineries, breweries and distilleries are struggling with weakened on-premise business as well as a general lack of awareness about your story and the fantastic products you offer.  Video, which can easily be showcased on your website and through social media is an incredibly powerful medium to reach a thirsty population looking for more, as well as an excellent visual to greatly enhance online and direct sales to your establishment. 

Make sure to contact us at info@thedrunkengrape.com to learn how our experts can help.

... enthusiastic, knowledgable ...

Our team had Rob conduct a virtual beer tasting event to our team of 30 employees. The event was extremely well received by everyone and it was a great mix of education and fun. Rob was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and knew how to engage his audience. If you are looking to do a virtual event with your team, I would highly recommend Rob's firm. It's a guaranteed win for your entire organization.

... positive, deeply knowledgable ...

Working with Rob is a pleasure. He is dynamic, positive, deeply knowledgable, and a true professional. Rob helped us drive significant awareness with a video campaign that really helped as we worked hard to keep Flora top of mind during these past few challenging months. Highly recommend working with Rob!

... incredibly personable, positive, has great energy ...

I recently hired Rob for a personal wine tasting with my husband for our wedding anniversary. Given the distance and COVID, we did the tasting virtually, which was much easier than I realized it would be. I was absolutely blown away by Rob's in-depth knowledge not only of wine, but, of the history wine and beer. Rob is incredibly personable, positive, has great energy, has vast knowledge, and provided an experience my husband and I will never forget. I highly recommend Rob without reservation.

Willing to go the extra mile ...

I've been working with Rob now for over 6 months and during that time he has impressed me so much. I have witnessed and seen first hand that his knowledge is above and beyond most yet his ability to present his expertise as a Sommelier in a language everyone can understand is a true and rare asset. That takes a special person, and Rob has proven himself time and time again as reliable, understanding and most of all, willing to go the extra mile and get things done. Rob is one of a kind. Highly recommended.

... pouring in with positive feedback!

Thank you so much for the event last night! Everyone has been pouring in with positive feedback! Many people have commented on your high energy and abilities to keep everyone interested and engaged as well as your in depth knowledge of the history across the whole spectrum of alcohol. Overall, a really great experience for our whole team!
