KELSEY GLASSER
Sommelier, Wine Educator, Restauranteur
Court of Master Sommeliers, Wine Spirits Educational TrustÂ
Kelsey has been a sommelier for over a decade and, thanks to a background in acting, she has a unique flair for making wine educational not only approachable but also enjoyable. After running award-winning wine programs in other people's restaurants (and being named one of Zagat's '30 Restaurateurs Under 30'), Kelsey opened her own wine bar (Thelonious Wines) and restaurant (Arden), which has become one of Portland's top wine destinations. She has a knack for translating wine into a language that everyone can speak. With her as your guide, you'll be confidently tasting,  selecting and pairing wine in no time. Cheers!
