​

At Pair & Pour, we believe that a well-chosen wine has the power to completely transform your dining experience.

To be your guide on this journey, offering expert tips and insights that turn every meal into something extraordinary.

​

I’m Alex Greek, owner of Pair & Pour and a Certified Sommelier. I’m here to take you on this journey. My passion for wine runs deep, sparked and shaped by my time at the International Culinary Center in Campbell, CA. Through years of tasting, studying, and exploring the vast, wonderful world of wine, I’ve honed my craft and gathered the kind of expertise that comes from hands-on experience.

​

Since 2011, I’ve had the incredible opportunity to work with some of the best in the business—places like Robert Young Winery, La Crema, and Martin Ray Winery. These experiences didn’t just teach me about winemaking; they opened my eyes to the nuances of different varietals and the intricate art of crafting truly memorable wines.

​

Here at Pair & Pour, we’re passionate about sharing what we’ve learned with you. Our virtual tastings will whisk you away to vineyards across the globe—no passport required—so you can explore and enjoy a world of wine from the comfort of your own home. These tastings are more than just a chance to sip; they’re an opportunity to join a community of wine lovers eager to learn, discover, and connect.

​

And when it comes to wine education, (TBA) we’ve got you covered. Whether you’re just starting out or have been swirling and sipping for years, our courses are designed to meet you where you are. We’ll dive into everything from wine regions and grape varietals to tasting techniques, so you can boost your wine knowledge at your own pace.

​

Pair & Pour isn’t just a website—it’s a gathering place for wine enthusiasts like you. A place to indulge, learn, and savor the joy of perfectly paired food and wine. We can’t wait to share our passion, expertise, and commitment to creating unforgettable culinary moments with you.
