Jon, thanks to you for a really well done and informative, not to mention fun evening.  Everyone was very impressed and enjoyed the evening immensely.  Dotty P.   Stratford

Hi Jon,
 We all had such a wonderful time and learned a lot!! The group
 really enjoyed all the wines.  Thank you so much for making the night so
 wonderful.  We are already talking about a Spanish wine tasting in the
future...when I'm able to drink again of course :) G.S.

Thanks Jon,
We all had a wonderful time! 
Everyone really enjoyed themselves & thought you did such a nice relaxed & casual
presentation...just the right amount of information with very nice wine choices.

Don't be surprised if you get some calls from people to whom I'd referred you.

Thanks again!

For several years the community at Waterview Landing in Shelton has sponsored an annual wine tasting afternoon held at our gazebo.  It’s an informal event; everyone brings one or two bottles of their favorite wines and some munchies.  Our resident wine expert, Jon Haight, moderates the event, and always makes the experience both educational and enjoyable.

Jon is extremely knowledgeable about wines, both domestic and foreign.  Typically Jon will rank the wines by white and red, and by maturity.  Since he does not know beforehand what wines will be available it is impressive to watch his skill in sorting the wines.

As the tasting progresses Jon describes the nuances of each wine and does so in terms that are easily understood.   We learn, we enjoy, and a good time is had by all. 

Speaking for the folks at Waterview Landing, we are thankful that Jon is resident, and would hope that others can benefit from Jon’s knowledge and skills.  He is excellent at what he does and has a great sense of humor to boot.

Dear Jon,

I wanted to drop you a note to say thank you for providing our Lions Club with a very educational and entertaining evening on October 27, 2010.  The presentation you did on the basics of wine tasting combined with that of a general knowledge of Chilean Wines and Ports provided us with a very informative program that our membership enjoyed.  Maybe we could consider doing this on an annual event.  Thanks again.
