Confessions of a Debut Virtual Taster
I’ve been around the wine tasting traps for 40 years. Small groups, often earnestly looking at the wine in our glass, sniffing the wine like a beagle dog and then, with a careful swirl before a tasting sip and spit. I’ve also been around online video communications for ages, the best of it is great, the worst … groan!
So I joined Wine Revolution’s virtual tasting with Justin Jarrett from See Saw Organic Wines with fairly modest expectations. I loved the experience, and here is why.
Allson Rainey, Wine Revolution’s founder had the gift of making all participants engaged and comfortable. A quick outline of the process, a check everyone was in place, ready to go and we were away for an hour’s tasting.
Justin Jarrett was a smart choice by Allson. An easygoing character and storyteller with fascinating work in progress tale to tell. Justin’s four wines were diverse and interesting. The conversation Switched around well beyond the technical issues of the wine, dipping into his working philosophy, marketing, future plans and touching on some contemporary issues in the wider world of wine. Allson’s skill as a ‘moderator’ was key here, allowing the conversation to flow while keeping us on time and overall track.
The skill of the tasting was making the occasion accessible and enjoyable for all. This is harder to do than it looks, in person, let alone online.
All in all, fun tasting involving open-minded people enjoying ideas about wine – and indulging in some good wines in the glass at the same time.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND
We really enjoyed our virtual wine tasting and our team were so appreciative! Ali was so organised and such a professional, dealing with her was a joy! Highly recommend to any group or organisation looking to host and event 🙂

We had a wonderful Tasting session with Sutton Grange organised by Wine Revolution, the wines arrived the day before and were all really delicious, even my husband enjoyed the sparkling, which he usually will not drink! The ordering afterwards was easy and arrived quickly.
Would recommend to others.(as reviewed on Trustpilot)
We have really enjoyed the two Tasting Assembly Masterclasses, such an interesting experience and very well curated by Ally and the WR team. The wine orders we’ve had have been easy, quick and most important of all – full of delicious wines ?
Highly recommended.

The best of lock-down. The best way to spend a locked-down Friday night. Ally facilitates an engaging and informative session for all. Fabulous customer service. I’m a big fan. Thanks Ally!
Great value for money and exceptional service!
We booked a very informative wine tasting/education session online with Wine Revolution, showcasing Domenica wines, during the Covid pandemic. The wine was delivered to our home, well in advance and the tasting session was outstanding.
After this experience, we decided to sign up to receive 6 bottles of various red wines, every second month, from Wine Revolution, to experience new, recommended wines. The entire process was seamless, quick and was extremely good value for money. We were buying more than this many wines for ourselves anyway, so why not have someone else recommend them, deliver them to us and support a local Australian business at the same time?! I also love that you are not locked in, like other similar businesses and that the packages are flexible.
Our dealings with Ally, through all of our interactions, have been nothing less than wonderful. She is an expert in her field, warm, genuine and extremely helpful.
I can’t recommend this company enough if you want to expand your knowledge of wine and experience new taste sensations!
Excellent wine tasting
Fantastic wine, fantastic hosts, and worth doing with or without COVID – please continue in the future.
A friendly Revolution
Friendly and prompt service with some interesting wines that are showcasing a new breed of winemakers.
Making lockdown fun again! We are having so much fun doing these tastings and it helps to break the monotony of lockdown in the comfort of our own home! Really enjoying being able to share these experiences with my family as usually I would only be doing this sort of thing through work. Ally does a great job of hosting and choosing delicious and sustainable wineries.
Just had the most awesome wine tasting with Wine Revolution. Top-quality wines, with socially and environmentally conscious ethos. Thanks to Thistledown wines and Ally Rainey for a great evening!
Thank You!
I joined the Tasting Assembly to learn more about Organic Wine. I have now enjoyed two One hour Zoom Masterclasses with Cullen and Smallfry Wines.
Learning about their Biodynamic vineyard practices is fascinating…..so much more than tasting wine.
Thank you.
Jen
Great zoom tasting, wines (and delivery bang on time)
Really enjoyed the winemakers tasting, great to engage with the maker and taste along as she explained how it’s done. So impressed, I bought a few more bottles 🙂

Hi Ally,
Just wanted to say thanks again for the last three weeks. We always enjoy the wine and learning about it. Thanks for being patient with our dumb questions!
Hope to catch you again soon for a winemaker one!
What an amazing opportunity I’ve had to have a tasting assembly in my home. All of my guests were raving at how wonderful the wines and the experience was! You can tell that Ally is very passionate about sustainable wines with the way she talked about them and she was very knowledgeable about the processes involved. We had a lot of questions which she answered with ease. It was both a fun and educational experience with a feel-good aspect knowing you are supporting small, artisan producers who care about the environment. I am just so happy I hosted a tasting assembly! Thank you so much for an unforgettable wine tasting experience, Ally!!
My kids and I organised a wine tasting at home as a fathers day gift for my husband. Best fathers day present ever!!!! My husband had a group of friends over and I made an easy platter of food for them to enjoy with the wine tasting. Everyone had a great time! Ally was informative and fun, and it was great to learn more about organic wines from local regions. It’s going to be hard to top that one for fathers day next year! Maybe we will have another home tasting. Such a great afternoon! Cannot recommend highly enough! Thanks Ally!
Awesome thanks so much Ally, we all had a wonderful night.
I found the whole experience to be fun, educational and entertaining and you were the consummate host and so wonderfully personable (and knowledgeable), thank you!
I greatly appreciate the discount as well… and now to get stuck into the wines when they arrive!
We had a fabulous experience thanks to Ally at a recent Tasting Assembly. A night in at home with the girls, delicious cheese, amazing wine topped off by some information and very interesting wine education by Ally. The whole experience was thoroughly enjoyable!
One of my favourite things in life is wine. The wonderful Ally not only made this a reality with one of her amazing tasting assembly afternoons but also educated me on all things wine!
Thank you so much Ally for taking the time to do a guided tasting with us, opening up our minds to organic and minimal intervention wines, and your general funny self!
Looking forward to being part of another vino afternoon 🙂
If you want to evolve, you have to admit that you don’t know everything!
Delicious, informative, and the way forward!
It’s a party celebrating amazing wine, winemakers, and of course; your best friendships!
Love it! Before the Tasting Assembly I had never really considered organic and preservative free wines before, but they will now be my go-to with so many delicious choices, that are good for you and the planet! Thanks Ally!
What a great way to learn about wine which is better for us and frankly, better for the environment. In a gorgeous home environment, an intimate gathering, I was brought along ‘a journey’ with my girlfriends and loved every minute. Ally is so passionate and knowledgeable about these wines and I absolutely can’t recommend the tasting event enough!
A huge thanks to Wine Revolution for hosting a specially curated Ladies of New York Tasting Assembly – a themed event as a per-cursor to my 50th celebrations in New York. Ally presented 10 absolutely delicious wines and is a wealth of knowledge about this burgeoning industry…we learnt so much. Such a fun and relaxing Sunday afternoon with girlfriends. Highly recommend Tasting Assembly as part of your special event festivities.
OMG! What a fun afternoon tasting Organic & low-intervention wine with my closest girlfriends!
Ally’s knowledge is mind-blowing. The wines themselves are fun, unpretentious and unique.
A MUST DO FOR ANY OCCASION!
I hosted a Tasting Assembly in my home and we all absolutely LOVED it. Ally was so brilliantly knowledgable and we all not only learned so much but we had so much fun doing it. The wines were all next level delicious and now that I have had the chance to taste them there is no going back to conventional wine making processes for us! We absolutely love the wines that Ally now curates for us every month and feel so much better for it. No hangovers for us anymore… what a win! I highly recommend hosting a tasting for anyone who is remotely interested in a more natural wine making process and wines that are not only insanely delicious but are better for the environment as well.
“ A perfect Sunday afternoon: fabulous banter, amazing wines and Ally with all of her wine wisdom. I can’t recommend the Tasting Assembly enough for a relaxed afternoon with friends in your own home”
