“Learning to select and pair wines can be an intimidating process for many women. But Leslie managed to educate the crowd with ease. Her engaging, conversational tone and sharp sense of humor proved to be tremendous to the overall success of our Hi Gorgeous Tour events!”

O, The Oprah Magazine
“Leslie Sbrocco holds the title of the most appreciated and enjoyed speaker at the Women’s Show series we produce. Leslie’s knowledge of wine is impressive. It is, however, her ability to share this knowledge in a fun, interesting and interactive way what makes Leslie special. She epitomizes the saying, “Tell me and I’ll forget. Show me and I’ll remember. Involve me and I’ll understand.” Her book, “Wine for Women,” is a personal favorite, and I recommend it to my friends (both women and men) who are wine connoisseurs as well as those just beginning to explore the world of wine. We’ve had many wonderful speakers and never had a speaker whose topic, delivery and personal sense of style has so enchanted our audiences.”
- Joan H Zimmerman, CEO, Southern Shows, Inc.
“Leslie is an amazing keynote speaker. Not only were all of her seminars a sell-out, she truly entertained and educated the standing-room only crowds. But that’s not all. With Leslie, we had the perfect speaker because of her command of print, radio and television media and her willingness to totally support her speaking engagements by conducting media interviews on our behalf.”

“Attending a Leslie Sbrocco seminar is like a breath of fresh air! Her contagious spirit and in depth wine knowledge make her presentations easy to follow, entertaining and informative. Everyone walks away with a smile and a shopping list, be it for a great merlot or a new black dress!! Kudos to Leslie for bringing this engaging presentation style to the forefront of wine education.”
- Jamie Peha, Executive Director, Taste Washington Festivals
“It was a pleasure to have Leslie Sbrocco as a guest speaker for our James Beard dinner on June 25th with Chef Jamie Leeds of 15ria. The wines matches for the dinner were superb and Leslie charmed the members in attendance with her vivacious and sparkling personality. Everyone learned a lot and had plenty of fun. She knows how to connect with her audience and share her knowledge without boring, jargon-filled lectures.”
- Gary Cheong, Volunteer Program Chair, James Beard Foundation
