Your Hostess with the Mostess: here to make your wine tour unforgettable




Hi, I’m Jennifer! Originally from Texas, I have a passion for wine and a knack for creating memorable experiences. I kicked off my professional journey with a degree from the University of Texas at Austin, then after many years in the corporate world, I took a detour pursuing my passion into the world of winemaking at the University of California, Davis. Yes, that’s right-I actually know what’s in your glass!
After nearly 20 years of organizing events, speaking at conventions, working with CEO’s, and juggling the kind of logistics that make big conventions and events run smoothly, I traded the office boardrooms and convention centers for the peaceful hills of Portugal and the joy of sharing wine with curious travelers.
I’ve called this beautiful country home for two and a half years now, and I’ve taken the time to learn Portuguese to truly embrace the culture and connect. Why? Because life’s too short to not take a chance and do what you love.
So here I am, pouring my heart into something I’m truly passionate about: sharing the magic of wine, travel, and culture with explorers like you. I’ve got the know how to keep things organized and flowing effortlessly, and just enough sass to keep things fun.
My mission? To make sure you have an unforgettable time discovering the best wines, finding your favorite style of Port wine (spoiler alert: there’s more than one), uncovering hidden spots, and soaking up the vibrant stories of this beautiful region.
So, whether you’re a wine newbie or a seasoned sipper, come explore Portugal and raise a glass with me. I promise it’ll be an experience worth remembering.
