Eddie Osterland is your personal wine coach.  He lightheartedly entertains audiences while teaching them how to enjoy wine, whether entertaining at home or dining out.

He has all the experience and none of the pretensions of a French-trained and certified Master Sommelier.  He is a pioneer.  There are only 49 Master Sommeliers in the United States today and Eddie was the first of them.  He received the prestigious Diplome D’Aptitude A La Degustation Des Vins from the Universite de Bordeaux, France.

Esquire Magazine featured him as their expert for its “Wine Advisor Video.”

For eight years he was the Wine Editor of Restaurant Business Magazine and produced the popular audio training series, “Discovering the Pleasures of Wine”.

He is the author of the book Wine & The Bottom Line written for the National Restaurant Association.

Audiences everywhere know him as funny, approachable and non-intimidating.  He gives them the knowledge and skills they need to enjoy wine, and gives them the confidence to entertain impressively.
