Join us for an elegant evening of wine, culture, and creativity at the in-person Passport to the World of Wines experience, featuring the rich flavors and timeless sophistication of French wines presented by Capital Sculpture Garden & Winery.

Discover exceptional wine selections inspired by the renowned vineyards of France while mingling with fellow enthusiasts in a vibrant atmosphere featuring live music, fine art, cultural showcases, and designer fashion presented by Washington, D.C.’s diverse creative talents. Guests will enjoy exclusive meet-and-greet experiences with acclaimed artists and fashion designers, offering the opportunity to explore, purchase, and commission original artworks, couture collections, and handcrafted creations while connecting directly with the creative minds behind them in an elegant and inspiring setting.

Whether you are new to wine tasting or a seasoned connoisseur, this immersive experience invites guests on a memorable journey through the world of wine, culture, and culinary artistry. Each month, Passport to the World of Wines will feature a different country, showcasing its distinctive wines, traditions, cuisine, fashion, music, and artistic heritage. Guests may also enjoy an optional petite three-course curated tasting menu, with each course thoughtfully paired with featured wines and complemented by delicate desserts or fine chocolates, creating an unforgettable evening for the senses.
