What wine do you drink when no one's watching?

When no one's watching, I’m popping the cork on something bubbly! Whether it’s a crisp Prosecco, a cheeky Cava, or a classic Champagne, I’m a huge fan of all things sparkling. There’s just something about those effervescent bubbles that makes even an ordinary Tuesday feel like a celebration.

If you were a wine, what would you be and why?

If I were a wine, I’d be a Barbera. Why? Because Barbera is the ultimate easy-going companion—medium-bodied (sometimes lighter), with fine tannins and absolutely no rough edges. It’s packed with fun flavors of cherry and berry, always bringing a warm, spicy hug and a lively acidity to the party. Just like me, it’s approachable, a little bit zesty, and always ready to brighten up your day.

Favorite wine region?

Southern Rhône for white wines—where the sun-kissed vineyards create whites that are fresh, aromatic, and full of character.
Salta, Argentina for reds—high-altitude Malbecs and Cabernets that are bold, vibrant, and a little adventurous (just the way I like it).
Champagne for sparkling—because nothing says “let’s celebrate” like a glass of the world’s finest bubbles.
Provence for Rosé—the home of effortlessly elegant pink wines, perfect for sipping on a sunny afternoon.

Cheers to great wine, good company, and a little sparkle in every glass!
