“Loved it!!! Attended with my friend, Sandi Hebley. We both had a great time. Loved the set up, location, the tables, the people at our table, snacks, using the saber to open the bottle, & the champagne (bubblies) that we were there to taste. The ladies describing each wine, were enthusiastic & very knowledgable. We plan on coming back. A little cheese on the snack tray would be lovely. ”
