Join me and a small group of fellow writers in Rioja this fall for an exciting week devoted to writing, creativity, and taste! From October 11-17, I will lead a small group (no more than six) in an immersive, all-inclusive experience to improve your drinks writing and your tasting. We’ll spend our mornings workshopping your writing, our afternoons visiting Rioja’s top wineries, and our evenings and mealtimes experiencing the vibrant city of Logroño. Click link in bio!
This immersive program is for people who want to take their writing and tasting skills to the next level. If you write (or aspire to write) about wine, spirits, food, travel—whether professionally or personally—this course is for you. Are you an aspiring journalist, essayist, or tastemaker? Are you a sommelier or bartender who wants to expand into creating content? Are you looking to supplement what you’ve learned in your WSET courses? Do you work in wine communications, marketing for a drinks company, or publish a newsletter for an importer, shop, winery, or distillery? Are you an influencer who wants to write? Well, this experience is for you. We will explore all aspects of writing about taste.
This is not a run-of-the-mill “writers retreat” where you’re trapped in some farmhouse for a week, vaguely “being creative.” The focus here is on developing your work, based on your goals. You will get plenty of feedback, both from our group, and one-on-one with me. Every day, there will be group exercises and tastings, as well as time to work on your personal writing (which we will discuss 1:1 before, during, and after the workshop experience).
