" Recently I had the distinct pleasure of attending a wine tasting given by Zita Keeley of "All I Do is WIne" for the North Jersey Network Associates. Zita's vast knowledge of wine was excellently presented in a relaxed and fun way. In this particular presentation, her goal was to help us explore unique varieties of wine and how they pair with an assortment of food items. She easily met that goal while engaging all of us, some of whom are wine afficionados and some who are fairly new to the world of wine, in lively conversation. We look forward to her wit, charm and educational skills at our next NJNA function to be held in the near future and would highly recommend her to anyone who is interested in holding a wine tasting event. A Barbera - President- North Jersey Network Associates, Inc. "Thank you Zita for leading the 2008 wine tasting event for the Hudson Tea Building residents. We appreciated your recommendations for selecting & pairing the wines with cheese, breads & fruit. We all had a great time and also thank you for your patience in handling such large & diverse group. Sincerely, K Ford The Hudson Tea Social Commitee-Hoboken NJ" “Thanks so much for customizing an excellent educational and fun evening for my Senior Leadership team. Your in depth knowledge of wine was clearly evident and the way you tailored the message to both business and pleasure was spot on. I received many positive comments from my team as it was truly something unique and different and something that we all will use in the future. Thanks for increasing our appreciation of the finer points of pairing good wine with good food. Salute! J Zallie – National Starch & Chemical Company "I hired Zita to do a wine tasting event for undergraduate candidates for my consulting firm this past October. Zita did a fantastic job! She made planning the event very easy - basically all I had to do was put her in contact with the manager of the venue and she took care of the rest. As for the event itself, having the structure of the wine tasting provided a nice focus for what can sometimes be a slightly awkward "getting-to-know-you" event, and Zita's engaging and entertaining display kept the interest and energy up throughout the whole 3 hours the event lasted. The event was a big success, and I received compliments for weeks afterwards from candidates about how much they enjoyed the event - well done!” – Astrid Werner - Katzenbach Partners, NYC "Zita, I can't thank you enough for the great evening that we spent together. I told my wife NOT to plan anything for my 50th Birthday. I am so glad that she did not listen to me. Although a couple of weeks have passed, our friends and family are still talking about that night. You and Patrick were a hit and even the non wine lovers were extremely impressed with your knowledge and how you engaged the crowd. We immediately felt as though we knew both of you for years. (And hope that we do). I would recommend your services to anyone planning an event. You don't have to be a wine lover to enjoy this evening. Thank you again. (And for the Franciscan Cab) " B Feldman – V Brick Systems Hi Zita! Thank you so much for your email and your good wishes!! Everyone had a WONDERFUL time Saturday night! They all kept saying how educational the evening was without being to overwhelming! Everyone definitely appreciated that you gave us some time to talk in between each wine so that the evening was social as well. This truly was the perfect evening for MIchelle and I am thrilled that we found you and were able to have you with us for the night! Thanks again for everything, you truly made the night so easy to plan! Hope to work with you again in the future! Take care,Jennifer |

Fundraiser, wine tasting. The evening was a GRAND success and we raised thousands of dollars. And frankly,
it is you to whom they should be reaching out and complimenting. Fabulous job, we couldn't have done it
without you. You are professional, smart, and knowledgeable as well as beautiful! I have emailed your site
info to all the members of the organization so that they can contact you for their own personal events. Thank

" I just wanted to thank both you and Patrick for a fun night in our home. The family and friends that were there
thoroughly enjoyed themselves and I know that the knowledge you both imparted to them was priceless. I will
be taking your business cards to school with me. I am sure that some of the teachers would be interested in the
service you provide. I think it's a great way to spend an evening with people you care about! Both you and
Patrick are warm and caring people which comes across immediately. Thanks again for making a memory in
our home.

"All Zita Does is Wine.....and let me tell you how well she does it! I was planning my wife's 30th birthday
party, and I wanted to do something special for her. Knowing her passion for wine, I thought I would ask a
sommelier to come host a party for my wife, her friends, and her family. Having been out to Napa, Sonoma,
and the Santa Ynez valley this summer, we came into contact with numerous wine educators, who were all
very friendly and knowledge, but Zita tops them all by far. Zita and Patrick (her husband), put on a
tremendous display of entertaining and educating. She created such a cool vibe for the party, which
consisted of about 40 people.
I can't tell you how many compliments I received from everyone, who told me what a great idea it was. Zita
and Patrick were so pleasant and enjoyable, I felt like I had known them for years. Their wine selection was
magnificent, and they were very informative about the various wines that we sampled. The crowd was
captivated from the first minute, until the very end. All I know is that I couldn't have asked for a party to turn
out any better than it did, and Zita was an instrumental part in making that happen. I highly recommend that
you give Zita the opportunity to show you how she does wine!"
