 Patti
judged her first regional wine competition on Saturday April 16, after passing
her Sommelier's exam in March. She judged 100 different wines along with 5
other judges over 5 hours, choosing the best 3 wines in each of 7 different
categories and best of show. She wears her Sommelier pin very proudly, and is
already scheduled for her next competition judging at Valley Vineyards on June
4.
 After
five weeks of intense home study, two days of accelerated classroom work
and an exam that "Rivaled my Nursing Boards", Patti passed her Court of
Master Sommeliers Introductory Exam in Worthington on March 29, and now
holds the title of 'Level One Sommelier'. We are all very proud of her
at Harmony Hill.
