Daniel Solway, Santé

Dan, a Philadelphia-based sommelier, founded Santé as a way to share his passion for wine and food with others. What began as Zoom wine classes for friends and family during the pandemic evolved into a dynamic food and wine community, with Dan hosting unique dinners featuring local chefs from around the city. Each event challenges diners’ perceptions of wine and food.

With experience working at vineyards in Champagne, Austria, and Germany, as well as renowned restaurants like Oxalis, June, and Henry’s Wine & Spirits, Dan is dedicated to making wine more accessible, sustainable, and enjoyable. He loves large format bottles, porròns, and always brings energy to the party. He is excited to take Santé to the next level with its first travel experience in France.

Kristin Watts, Zephyr Selections

With 15 years of working in different sectors of the wine business focused on French wine, Kristin made Burgundy her home and is fully immersed in the wine culture and community, which she loves to share. She offers a unique insight into the varied aspects of wine and connects with locals to offer you an exclusive opportunity to understand what the books don’t tell you about wine - all of which she shares passionately as she guides you throughout the region.

Intimate connections with winemakers lend added value with the ultimate goal of creating a unique and memorable experience.
