Professional wine education, made clear.

◇ Meet Your Founding Sommelier ◇
Gina Biernacki,
certified sommelier.
What began as a Certified Sommelier study notebook has grown into a visual wine education platform for curious beginners, certification students, teams, and industry professionals.
Sommplicity organizes wine the way a sommelier studies it, removes the pretension, and makes the structure visible.
My goal is not to make wine less serious.
It's to make serious wine knowledge easier to access, easier to retain, and easier to use.

◇ The Path ◇
Methodical frameworks,
Methodical frameworks,
brought to the wine world.
Twenty years of training in consulting, business school and product management. The same tools for clarity, structure and learning systems, applied to a field that still leans on memorization.

2013 - 2025
MBA and Product Manager at Google
Consulting at Bain, MBA from Chicago Booth, PM at Google. The toolkit: frameworks, decomposition, learning loops.

Advanced wine knowledge, the way the industry teaches it. Memorization-heavy, framework-light. Noticed the gap.
