Valentini's Custom Wine Cellars
WINE EVENTS
Kathleen in our Scottsdale Showroom in 2000 preparing for our first wine tasting for our store customers, wine locker customers and client builders and architects.
Had a great time at this year's Grand Tasting at Caesars Palace on May 9, 2014.
We enjoyed a staggering variety of signature dishes prepared by the world’s most celebrated chefs. The dramatic five-acre Garden of the Gods Pool Oasis at Caesars Palace featured more than 50 award-winning chefs and more than 100 of the best wines and spirits from around the world. What an amazing time!
I had the great honor and pleasure of meeting the world renowned Michael Broadbent when he was honored at the World Gourmet Summit in Las Vegas.
John Michael Broadbent, MW is a British wine critic, writer and auctioneer at Christie's. He is a published writer and authority on wine tasting and old wines.
