The Vine Edit started with a question I kept asking myself: How can I keep track of all the good wine events in LA?

If you’re anything like me, you see tastings pop up in your feed, hear about a wine dinner through a friend, maybe even save a few posts to your Instagram folder—but then forget to circle back, miss the date, or catch it too late. And just like that, you’ve missed something cool you actually wanted to go to.

So I decided to fix that.

I’m Ronda—a certified wine expert, LA local, and someone who really believes in the power of a great glass of wine shared in a good setting. I created The Vine Edit wine map as a curated, citywide calendar of tastings, wine dinners, pop-ups, and classes worth knowing about. Not just anything with a wine pour—but real events that feel thoughtful, fun, and like they belong on your calendar.

My husband built the map for me (and for you!) and I update it regularly with events I’d be excited to attend myself. No fillers. Just wines you’ll want to drink and moments you won’t want to miss.

Because here’s the thing: wine doesn’t need to be explained—it needs to be experienced. Whether it’s a casual tasting, a class that makes you more curious than before, or a lively night of good bottles and great conversations, those are the moments that remind you that wine is so much more than just a drink.

This is my small way of supporting the industry I love—from winemakers and distributors to shop owners and somms—and helping more people connect with the world of wine in a way that feels fun, laid-back, and joyful.

Hope to see you at something soon.
