How Vino and Vibes Lifestyle Began...

Hey there! My name is Raven Booth and I'm the owner of "Vino and Vibes Lifestyle". It all began in my apartment in Highland Park, NJ in 2013. I had recently become a certified sommelier and one of my girlfriends asked me if she could come over for some one on one "lessons". She loved the fact I made it cool and not pretentious as most people feel wine drinkers are. She told a friend, who told a friend, who then told a friend "Oh hey my girl Raven knows all about wine and will give a tasting for you". Those word of mouth referrals turned into me starting a business called "Vino and Vibes"

Fast forward to 2015, I decided to take this show on the road and moved to California to see if this could blossom into something more. Which it Did! I grew my relationships with vineyard/winery owners, wine bar owners and a number of wine professionals from So-Cal to North Cal.

Then in 2018 things came to a screeching halt. I began having health issues and had to briefly abstain from drinking wine for a few months. I was absolutely devastated and went into a brief depression. How on earth could I participate in wine tastings or even enjoy something that I was so passionate about if I couldn't drink it. When my health became back to normal and I was able to enjoy wine again, I decided that this was an excellent time to "Pivot".

I realized what I ultimately wanted was to curate a vibe where people could relax and enjoy wine. If I facilitated that, then I still can participate with something I love.

Thus "Vino and Vibes LIFESTYLE" began.

A Lifestyle by definition means "the way a person or group lives".

I want people that purchase any of my items to LIVE a life with nothing but dope vibes.

Cheers Ya'll! *clink*
