Mother’s Day is a time to celebrate the women who do it all—with love, strength, humor, and grace. This year at In Vino & Spirits, we’re raising our glasses to moms everywhere with a wine tasting event designed just for them. Introducing "Mamma Needs Wine", a special afternoon featuring a curated selection of wines from the legendary Kermit Lynch portfolio, perfectly paired with light bites and springtime vibes.
Whether you're celebrating your mother, grandmother, partner, or yourself (we see you, wine-loving mamas!), this event promises a laid-back, elegant experience full of discovery, laughter, and meaningful moments.
Why “Mamma Needs Wine”?
Let’s face it—being a mom is a full-time job and then some. Between managing households, careers, relationships, and self-care, sometimes what every mom really needs is a moment to unwind, sip something beautiful, and be celebrated. That’s where Mamma Needs Wine comes in.
This isn’t just a wine tasting. It’s an afternoon to breathe, connect, and indulge in a thoughtful selection of wines that reflect the same balance of depth, strength, and elegance that so many mothers carry with them every day.
The Wines: Curated by Kermit Lynch
Kermit Lynch is synonymous with authentic, terroir-driven European wines. Known for sourcing wines from small producers with big stories, the Kermit Lynch portfolio is a goldmine for lovers of expressive, elegant wines that speak of place and purpose.
Here’s what we’ll be pouring:

Why Wine Brings Us Together
There’s something inherently social and connective about wine. It invites conversation, slows time, and encourages us to be present. For many moms, those are rare luxuries—which is why this event is so important.
"Mamma Needs Wine" is a toast to slowing down. To sharing stories. To reconnecting. And to celebrating the everyday beauty of being a mother, a daughter, a friend, or simply a woman who enjoys a good glass of wine.

This Mother's Day, don’t just give flowers or a greeting card. Give an experience. Mamma Needs Wine is more than a tasting—it's a celebration of all the moments, memories, and milestones that motherhood brings.
Come for the wine. Stay for the laughter. Leave with full hearts and a few new favorite bottles. 🍷🌸
