Are you ready to embark on a unique journey through the captivating world of small-scale and family-owned wineries? Join us for an exclusive wine workshop series led by the renowned sommelier Kat Nyman.
Kat has been working in the wine industry for 14 consecutive years (that’s starting before she was legal to drink in Ontario, whoops). Her passion for wine stems from her fascination with people, time, and place…and rocks.
Blending her formal wine education (WSET 3) and her lived experience working in vineyards and making wine around the world, she loves to demystify, myth-bust and challenge drinkers’ perceptions of what wine can and should be.
She currently works in Ottawa as The Living Vine’s (est.2005 - ON’s first and largest importer dedicated to organic/biodynamic and natural wine) eastern ON sales rep and as a sommelier at some of the city’s favourite places to imbibe.
