This Week on TheGlitz… When Nikhil Agarwal Uncorks California Wines at Late Checkout, Evenings Turn Effortlessly Iconic
TheGlitz was invited to what can only be described as a delightfully decadent, wine-soaked evening to taste some incredible California Wines at Late Checkout… and let’s just say, we’re still swooning.
Hosted in association with the California Wine Institute, the evening was elevated (quite literally2) by the effortlessly charming Nikhil Agarwal, Founder of All Things Nice, one of the forces behind The Wine Cellar, ProWine Mumbai and Anggel’s Share, turned out to be nothing short of a revelation. One moment he was your suave wine connoisseur, the next… quiz master extraordinaire, dishing out trivia with a side of wit and mischief that had everyone hooked.
It wasn’t just about swirling, sniffing, and sipping some excellent wines (there were three fab wines introduced – Morgan Bay Cellars Chardonnay, California, USA, Morgan Bay Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon, California, USA, and Rutherford Ranch Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, California, USA). It was about stories, laughter, unexpected conversations, and discovering that wine, much like great company (meeting the charming Nichole Podesta, Senior Agricultural Attaché, USDA Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS) was an added bonus), only gets better with time. The canapés were delightful, the wines were exceptional, and the vibe… Impeccably high-spirited.
If you ever get the golden invite to an evening curated by Nikhil Agarwal… take it. No questions asked. Because this isn’t just wine tasting… it’s an experience. And trust us, you don’t want to miss a single sip of it.
