About this Event

From Kenya to Washington: A Guided Tasting with Nelly Some

Join Nelly Some, the Kenyan-born chef and founder of Mvinyo Winery, for a special tasting event. Nelly will be pouring four of her African-inspired Washington wines, each crafted to complement bold flavors and showcase the richness of her culinary heritage.

This is a rare chance to taste wines directly from the woman who created them and hear the stories behind each bottle. For $30, guests will enjoy an intimate, guided experience that goes far beyond a standard tasting flight.

Nelly’s approach to winemaking is rooted in culture, community, and pairing, making this event ideal for anyone who appreciates thoughtful craftsmanship and unique flavors. It’s a one-of-a-kind opportunity to discover exceptional wines and connect with the creator herself.
