Everything that I do is about educating, whether it’s teaching or consulting. We look at the entire world of wine – the business end, the viniculture; viticulture and how everything works – not only how it tastes or smells.

We can't wait for our next event with Thru the Vines!

We love working with Billie! We have done 5 different events through Billie and Thru the Vines and each one has been unique, fun, and so successful, meeting our different group needs. Most recently we did the wine blending class and had a BLAST! The structure of the class is well designed, informative, creative and fun and Billie comes prepared with everything needed to make it a success from beginning to end. We can’t wait for our next event with Thru the Vines.

Very knowledgeable and easy to work with, always exceeding my expectations.

I hired Billie Joyce to curate the wines for my wine bar. We have over 76 different wines on the menu and15 different wine flights. All are accessible and delicious. She also created wine education modules for the staff, which included videos and quizzes. Billie is very knowledgeable and easy to work with, always exceeding my expectations. I truly cannot sing this wine consultant and educator praises loud enough!
