[But, feel free to bring wine from your cellar or favorite wine shop...remember the theme: Vintage Tuscan Wines white or red , valued at $30 or more]

Our wine affairs are structured around the Have Fun Wine-ing With Grae game.  

Some examples are:


5 sommeliers, all extremely personable and are graduates of the International Wine Center.
(After becoming acquainted with the wines at your station, teams will be challenged via blindfold to differentiate the wines. Its fun to see how much your nose knows.)

5 fun facilitators, guarantee you experience all that our wine "affair" has to offer.

A wine scent station, a fun, interactive way to help identify the different scents in your wines.
 
A pronunciation station, if you are challenged with pronouncing foreign wine labels, this station makes pronunciation easy and enjoyable. It is our version of family feud!
 
A comparison wine station, guess the value wine vs. the expensive wine!

 

Here's the simple way to wine with us! 
 
Each guest chooses a wine from our wine list, which can be found on our website (please call to place your win order), which will be delivered the day of the tasting. Or bring your own bottle... remember the theme...

Vintage Tuscan Wines- white or red


Invite your friends, have them choose a wine too!
 
To commit OR not to commit?... You are only being asked to commit on a month to month basis, so by saying, YES to September's tasting does not mean you're committed to the tasting in October unless you choose to be... Savez?
