hello! 👋🏾 after jumping into doing these pop ups, it looks like we forgot to introduce ourselves. lol, ummm RUDE! my name is dante (he/they) & i’m a wine fanatic, writer, hospitality pro, & sometimes even an occasional sommelier 😁 @preshiftnyc is important to me because not only is it a dope opportunity for us to pour cool shit for people we love, but it’s also a chance for us to prove how fun, unpretentious, & accessible wine can be. we’re tryna abolish that whole snooty ass mentality when it comes to drinking wine. like, relax, it’s just fermented grape juice. 🤪 BUT, at the same time, if we can sneak a little education with the glasses we pour, if we can give a little spiel about how we believe vines connect the world, & if we can put a spotlight on the winemakers who are trying their best to make their wine with practices that benefit the land from whence it came? then, @julitapplebum and i count that as a W. cheers! nice to meet ya! or, nice to see ya again! come sip on a lil sumn w/ us whenever you can! 🥂 📸: @astonfotos

Hey beautiful people! It’s your resident vino lover Julianny (they/she). I’m queer non-binary, a former public school teacher, and a sommelier. I’m super passionate about great wine made by folks who respect the land and treat their employees ethically. My and @brotherdante ‘s mission with preshift is to create safe and fun spaces for folks of all experiences to taste delicious wine and nurture folks’ curiousities about how the beverage in their glass was made and who’s the face behind the bottle of their choice. One thing about me, I’m gonna nerd out over cuvées that give me that WOW factor. Skin contact Gewurtztraminer from Alsace? Gimme that! Chardonnay from Burgundy that’s been aged on the lees and undergone malolactic fermentation? NEED that! Red white blends from NY’s Hudson Valley? YES PLEASE!! Anywhoooo - nice to officially meet you all. Hope I see y’all soon at our next event (stay tuned)! Cheers! 🥂 📸: @tinyvignette

Today marks 4 years of preshift! and what a better way to celebrate then to be featured on the NY Times @tmagazine with wine pros we respect (shout out to @rhumrhino for making it happen). We want to thank our supporters and day ones! We are nothing without you and can’t wait to celebrate the success of our lil thing with ya’ll (more on that soon 😉). To commemorate the anniversary, tell us your favorite preshift! memory in the comments. 🍾🥂 📰: @k_guad & @nickkharamis 📸: @livingstonjenny

Live Disgorgment with Patois Wine Maker and Founder Patrick. 🍷 What is Disgorging? ‘The process of removing the sediment (lees) from a bottle of sparkling wine after its secondary fermentation and aging.’ Over at Patois Wine, an apple based wine from Virginia, founder Patrick disgorges each bottle by hand before it is ready to be sipped. The characteristics in their sparkling wines are fabulous. Highly recommend trying. @patoiswine

No oven, no refrigerator, no problem… we’re still gonna COOK THE BOOKS 🍽️ Over an open fire at our lakeside campsite last month, chef Marisa @nakamura__ crafted a 5-course tasting menu themed to the characters of @stephanienjeriwambugu ‘s BRILLIANT debut novel 🔥 From perfectly toasted buckwheat focaccia slathered with bay leaf butter to tender koji marinated steak, each course was as memorable as the character it represented. Turns out, a trip to the Adirondacks for some cake lightly smoked with hay WILL change your life forever 🍰 Every course was paired with a thoughtful summer wine curated by our friends at @preshiftnyc , finishing with a rare sake made from ancient strains of red rice traditionally reserved for moments of celebration 🍶 WELL READ, WELL FED. 😋 #pagebreak #tasting #books
