I’ll also share some big personal milestones: moving into a new apartment, starting a wine course, working at a yoga studio and yes—getting engaged! Plus, I became an aunt this year, adding even more love to my life.

And of course, no year would be complete without celebrating the fantastic wines that brought it all together, including the unforgettable apricot wine from Pakistan.
