I love to help people learn, to help them be savvy when they shop and be confident when they order. There is still so much myth and mythology around wine and beer and spirits. There is so much interest in the path of Sommelier. So much curious fascination about what I do, and I look forward to a long career of showing people exactly how amazing the world truly is.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-66a7f25\" data-id=\"66a7f25\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-426b64d elementor-position-top elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-box\" data-id=\"426b64d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-box-wrapper\"><figure class=\"elementor-image-box-img\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/rootedbottleshop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/bill-1-300x300.png\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-image-856\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rootedbottleshop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/bill-1-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/rootedbottleshop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/bill-1-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/rootedbottleshop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/bill-1-600x600.png 600w, https:\/\/rootedbottleshop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/bill-1-100x100.png 100w, https:\/\/rootedbottleshop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/bill-1.png 632w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"elementor-image-box-content\"><h3 class=\"elementor-image-box-title\">Bill Hoffman<\/h3><p class=\"elementor-image-box-description\">Bill spent the majority of his adult life in the Apartment & Corporate Housing industries.
