Liquid Archetypes: Wine Tasting & Tarot

February, Friday the 13th happens to land right before Valentine's Day. We’re leaning into the former.

At The Reluctant Somm, our drive is to curate unique experiences that make wine accessible and engaging without the usual pretense. We believe tasting events should be memorable nights out, not stiff lectures.

For this event, we are partnering with Trevino Wine Bar in Mission Bay to host a unique evening of curated wine and intuitive insight. The TRS team has taken over the wine list for the night, designing a specific flight that mirrors archetypes found in the Tarot deck. We are also bringing in resident reader Vanessa to offer insights throughout the evening.

Join us on Friday, February 13th from 5:00 PM to 10:00 PM at Trevino’s space to drink incredible wine, explore the cards, and connect with the community.

The Curated Flight The TRS team has selected four distinct wines tailored to match specific Tarot energies:

• The Fool (New Beginnings & Spontaneity): Josep Ventosa Cava Brut Nature NV (Sparkling)
• The Star (Clarity & Inspiration): Luna Hart Sauvignon Blanc, Ballard Adobes Vineyard 2023 (White)
• The Sun (Joy & Vitality): Dreamcote Gamay, Donnachadh Vineyard SRH 2022 (Red)
• The Wild Card (Somm's Intuition): A surprise 2oz pour chosen in the moment just for you.

The Experience: Two Ways to Attend We offer two tiers of access depending on the level of insight you desire.

Tier 1: The Major Arcana Pass (Reserved Time Slots) $35.00 per ticket

This is for those wanting the full experience. It includes the 4-wine flight, light bites, and a guaranteed, private 10-minute reading with Vanessa during your specific ticketed hour.

• How it works: Purchase a ticket for a specific 1-hour arrival window (e.g., 6 PM - 7 PM).

Tier 2: The Seeker Pass (General Admission) $18.00 per ticket

Perfect for a casual drop-in night out. Includes the full 4-wine flight, light bites, and a "self-guided" single card pull at the bar to set your intention for the night.
