Sentient Jet and Aspen Skiing Company Present the "Wines and Spirits of the Women's World Cup" at Exclusive Tasting Event

Exceptional and Uncommon Wines and Spirits From Across the Globe, Hand-Selected By World-Renowned Expert Anthony Dias Blue, Will Be Served


Weymouth, MA, December 5, 2005 - Rare, unique and painstakingly hand-selected wines and liquors from Argentina to Slovenia will be served by Sentient Jet and the Aspen Skiing Company at their "Wines and Spirits of the World Cup" tasting party to celebrate the Women's World Cup Races in Aspen on December 10th.

Sentient, the Official Private Jet Provider for Aspen/Snowmass, has worked with world-renowned wine and spirit authority Anthony Dias Blue - also Sentient's Wine & Spirits Ambassador - to specially select a wine or liquor to represent each of the twenty-three participating World Cup countries. From German Riesling to Croatian Dingac to Norwegian Aquavit, invited guests will have the opportunity to sample rare and outstanding spirits as they unwind at the Sentient Jet Hospitality Tent after viewing the world-class downhill racing of the Women's World Cup.

"From the Napa Valley to Eastern Europe, we are thrilled to give Sentient members and Aspen/Snowmass community sponsors the opportunity to experience and enjoy some of the best wines and spirits the world has to offer," said Steven Hankin, chief executive officer of Sentient Jet. "One of the many unique and exclusive benefits of Sentient membership is the chance to share in the unsurpassed wine and spirit knowledge of Anthony Dias Blue. He has created a way to celebrate the global nature of this event through a common passion, the enjoyment of fine wine and food from around the world. It's the perfect complement to watching the world's greatest skiers compete on the pristine slopes of Aspen Mountain."

Additionally, the Napa Valley Vintners, an association of Napa's premier winemakers, will be featuring wines throughout the weekend in the Sentient Hospitality Tent. Each day, eight wines from Napa will be selected, from premier vineyards such as Bouchaine, Swanson, Volker Eisele, Honig, and Freemark Abbey, and served to guests throughout the day. All twenty-five Napa Valley wineries will be featured at the "Wines and Spirits of the World Cup" event.

"The premium wines and spirits selected showcase the incredible diversity of products available from the participating countries," said Anthony Dias Blue. "This is truly a world-class event, and I felt that it was important that each country be represented by its finest wines and spirits."

As the Official Private Jet Provider for Aspen/Snowmass, Aspen/Snowmass guests receive access to Sentient's program when flying to and from the resort. Agents from Stay Aspen Snowmass have been trained to offer flights through the Sentient Program to any guest that is interested in flying privately - in essence, providing one stop for luxury travel to and from the destination. Aspen Skiing Company and Sentient also participate in special joint marketing programs to offer Sentient members unique benefits, including private ski lessons, spa treatments, cooking school lessons and dinner at select Aspen restaurants.
