Brett Zimmerman, Master Sommelier

This past weekend Felipe and I attended the Park City Wine Festival...and the best thing about it was Brett Zimmerman.

Please read my blog of July 10-11th on the Barolo Wine Tasting

Brett Zimmerman is Domaine Select Wine Estates Manager and a delightful presenter who knows his wines. It was a pleasure to attend last Friday's Barolo Wine Tasting Seminar and be able to speak with him, addressing such interesting things as location, types of soil, vines, and production of wine-making!

He also represented the Barolo wines he introduced from the tasting at the Saturday late afternoon Canyons Event--a fun three hour walk-around, with music and food from various Park City restaurants.

Zimmerman will soon be introducing my favorite Sicilian after dinner drink, Amaro Averna, to Utah! Yeah, Brett!

He is a Master Sommelier and holds a 2007 diploma to prove it. Allow me to say, there are less than one hundred Americans who have achieved this level of expertise and have passed the exam!

The headquarters of DSWE are located at 555 8th Ave. Suite 2302, NY, NY 10018
