Wine Tasting

Bring It, Drink It, Taste It

March’s wine tasting was a six-course oyster dinner paired with wine from Priam Vineyards located at Flanders’ Fish Market. It was a very educational evening with scrumptious oysters, delicious wine and great stories!

Please join us for an afternoon of wine education and good company! On Sunday, April 18th at 3pm, bring your favorite wine with its pairing (what food it goes well with) for our own wine tasting of our favorites! Please bring some information about the wine, besides it being awesome:) Keep the food to appetizers/dessert.

The wine tasting will be at Ashlee Crook’s house. Please rsvp with your wine/food selection by April 10th.

We look forward to seeing you and learning about the wine that you love.
