I am Van Webb, aka Van The W**e Man. In 2023, I passed the Court of Master Sommeliers Introductory Exam. After several decades of w**e love combined with beverage and hospitality experience, I am an official w**e man, offering personal and professional sommelier services. I serve private collectors with tastings, dinners and cellar building. I develop restaurant w**e programs and host educational dinners and fundraisers. I assist in bringing more great w**es and spirits to Oklahoma. I am a passionate promoter of the Tulsa w**e and dining scene.

I connect w**es and w**e lovers, for business and pleasure. Please give me a shout if I can be of service.

I got to do an instant classic w**e dinner this week. A great group of fully engaged friends. 12 w**es, with blind tasting fun, note cards, and entertaining discussion. Gourmet, spot on, home-cooked, and delicious food pairings. Big thanks to Jill and Eric for hosting one of my all-time favorite events!

A fabulous Philbrook W**e week complete! W**es discovered, dinners hosted, classes mastered, and after parties appreciated. Big thanks to Christina, Kayla, and the Philbrook staff, André Mack, whom I have w**e geeked on for almost 20 years, Jermaine and his true love of Tulsa, SueAnn and Sean, Robert and Polo Grill, our local distributors and industry volunteers, and the generous w**emakers who all make it happen.

My first Vinitaly is wrapped…50-ish tasting appointments…300++ w**es…A fresh list of business ideas… A refreshingly grueling four days. (and nights) Big kudos to Annette, who hung in and excelled throughout the entire marathon. Thank you to our Italy-America Chamber of Commerce Texas friends for making it possible. I understand the w**emakers want to sell us more w**e, but I appreciate their generosity with their w**es, and their time. It was great to see friends and make new ones. More Italian w**e, anyone?

Sights from Vinitaly and beyond. I love it when I can surprise Annette. Our first stop at the fair was at Valdicava, one of her all-timers. Mad Men season 3 episode 8 played out with Annette and the Italian guys at lunch. I cannot imagine many scenarios where you randomly happen across a w**emaker belting out opera-esque karaoke in a small corner bar like Simone, then be seated next to the rock star w**emaker Charles Smith the next night at dinner. I had my traditional final tasting (more unlabeled, experimental w**e) in the hotel room. There was continuous incredible food, but the very best came from small Trattoria Caprini in Negrar. Fabulous Italian style, design, and coffee all around. I again love Verona and Valpolicella. And One Flew South for the finish is tough to beat.

Nothing beats good w**e and great friends. I did a tour of Italy tasting for these ladies. It was a progressively fun ev...

Nothing beats good w**e and great friends. I did a tour of Italy tasting for these ladies. It was a progressively fun evening of w**e talk. Thank you for a great event!
