ROC: He Drank, She Drank: A Bottle of the Sexes - Valentine's Day Edition

 

 



Carolyn and Kevin have been drinking wine together since their college days at St. Lawrence University, where they paired a bottle of Blue Nun with buttered popcorn—a great pairing, to this day.

They’ve been studying together ever since. They both passed the Certified Wine Specialist exam from the Society of Wine Educators, and hold the Advanced Certification from the Wine & Spirits Education Trust. They won’t say which of them passed “with distinction.”

Both have served on the Board of Women For WineSense Rochester--Carolyn as Newsletter Editor and Kevin as Hospitality Chair. Together they created the theme for the 2010 Women For WineSense Grand Event in Napa: “Sip the Wine, Share the Moment, Savor the Experience.”

Kevin is also an amateur winemaker, and has won the American Wine Society’s Gold Medal for his Estate-Grown Chardonnay. He writes the amateur winemakers column for the national newsletter of the American Wine Society. These columns, as well Carolyn and Kevin’s “He Drank, She Drank” conversations, can be found on Kevin’s blog, kourofskywine.com.

When they have to put down the wine glasses and make a living, Carolyn is a freelance grant writer for non-profit organizations, and Kevin is an attorney in his own firm, Buckner & Kourofsky.

Kevin loves to make sparkling wines. Carolyn loves to drink them.

Rooms are available to make an extra special date night. Contact the hotel for more information.
