Introducing @dillon.dior ~ we’ve been lucky enough to have Dylan as a guest somm for the past two events and we are so happy to have him back again for Vol. 3.
Dillon Dior is a street sommelier, wine-culture writer, content creator and flat out wine lover who is set on sharing the best bottles with the best people. In 2023, Dylan founded @slurpwineclub which was created from the idea that good wine can be shared and talked about by everyone; not just a tasting note passed around by professionals with gold medals and strange words. Dylan believes sharing wine should feel like sitting on the lounge with your best friend and chatting freely.
.
And on a personal note from Ellen: I have known Dylan for many years after growing up in the same hometown and meeting around the year 2009. After working with Dylan on the past two Tables for 10 events, I’ve seen first hand that dylan provides an inviting wine service that makes you feel comfortable and opens you to actually learning about wine. To those attending tomorrow, we can’t wait for you to experience him in action. 🍷
@dillon.dior believes that wine shouldn’t be exclusive or intimidating. It’s about opening a bottle with friends, talking freely, and enjoying what’s in front of you. This spirit sets the tone for the evening this Thursday, January 29 at the Upstairs Pour.
