Join us for an exclusive cognac tasting party and private acoustic blues performance in our beautiful barrel room adjacent to the winery. We'll be tasting cognac curated by Matthew Skoller, US Sales and Co-Founder of Family Tradition Cognac. Matthew is not only an expert in the world of cognac but is also a world renowned Chicago Blues Harmonica player/singer/songwriter and producer. He will be sipping and discussing the world's finest artisan, grower Cognac and also serenading us, alongside blues guitarist, Billy Flynn.
