Complete satisfaction, served daily
Satiate brings many of life’s joys together into one forum for easy discovery and complete satisfaction.
Navigate our site and see for yourself; you’ll find wine and spirit reviews, often with recipes that are a perfect match, suggestions for travel and anything that helps ensure you’re savoring every moment.
Satiate consists of a team of contributors from all walks of life with varying banks of knowledge to draw from. We review wines, spirits and other beverages as well as foods, restaurants, venues and destinations, putting a bit of ourselves into each and every story. If it’s interesting and it can enrich your life, we want to share it with you.

Four ways to be satiated
Reviews of libations
Detailed wine reviews, stories of spirits, mixers, beer and cider write-ups — insightful, honest information so you’re pouring the good stuff.
Recipes for satisfaction
Timeless recipes and creative new inventions that bring family and friends together at the table.
Satisfy all your senses
Food, travel and a great drink. Destination guides that help you find the most memorable meal of your life.
Striking photography
Visual stories from vineyards, kitchens and festivals — so a visit here leaves you completely satisfied.
Samples & reviews
Whether it’s detailed wine reviews, stories of spirits, mixers, or beer and cider write-ups, we’ll provide the insightful and honest information you seek to make informed decisions. Satiate welcomes samples to review and creates more than just the standard four-line tasting note with score. Each libation is reviewed personally, and either written about individually or developed into a larger story.
All samples will be tasted (at the earliest convenience), but we don’t guarantee to review everything we receive. Satiate’s readers know and expect honesty and objectivity. Please include any marketing material or technical information you may have with your sample. Contact us for shipping information — and read our editorial policy.
Recipes for satisfaction
Cooking for others is both comforting and satisfying. It brings family and friends together to the table sharing stories and moments of joy. With just the right ingredients and combinations, you can recreate the dishes of Spain, Italy, France, or anywhere in the world, right in your kitchen.
Start with our reader favorite: Zucchini a la Otto.
