​GUILD TASTING UPDATE - NCSG Events

The Guild will continue to observe Covid guidelines and will be cautious in our approach to return to in person tastings.  To that end we will be continuing tastings at a distance by Zoom for the immediate future until it is again responsible to do otherwise.

In the meantime your Board of Directors will be holding our regular meetings by Webex to continue to plan events for when we resume.

​We hope that you are weathering things well and that you and your families are taking proper precautions to be safe.

Be Well,
Your NCSG Board of Directors

​The National Capital Sommelier Guild welcomes members of all levels, from students and wine lovers to Masters of Wine. Members share a common appreciation of fine wines and wine service and are especially keen to discover fine wines and spirits that offer great value for money.

​Reflecting the broad perspective and interests of its members, the Guild offers a diverse program of wine related events monthly. These events focus on one or more aspects of theory, tasting and/or wine and food pairing.
