New York Wine Club

ABOUT

I'm Leo the lawyer and wine connoisseur! When I’m not cracking cases at the office I’m cracking open crisp Greek Assyrtikos and pairing them with lemon-drizzled branzino! Whether it’s traveling the world at large or finding hidden gems in New York City, I believe both are often best experienced through food and wine. The only thing I enjoy more than hearing about the next place I “have to check out” is being the one to suggest it! Join Natalia and I on our journey of learning and loving wine. From restaurants, wine bars, vineyards and cellars, we seek out the stories behind every bottle and the people who craft them. Let’s have a drink!

Hello! I'm Natalia, co-Founder of NYWC and a Chemical Engineer by training, which means I can probably calculate the exact velocity of a champagne cork popping (just kidding, I'd rather be sipping it, or actually sabering it!). I'm WSET Level 2 certified and my current drink of choice is either Crémant, a French sparkling wine made by the same méthode traditionnelle as Champagne, or Beaujolais! I also enjoy treadmill running, the New York Knicks, Christmas, and geeking out with others about wine facts. Whether it's finding that perfect red wine for your next event or discussing double fermentation processes, I'm your girl. Cheers to life's amazing journey, one glass at a time! 🥂
