The event will take place on Friday, Nov. 18, from 5:30-7 p.m., in the river pavilion, along the Caloosahatchee River. This event was originally scheduled for October but had to be rescheduled due to the hurricane.
Guests are invited to sip wine, enjoy relaxing music and have a chance to see a beautiful sunset. Each participant will receive two red wine tastings and two white from different regions, paired with four cheese samples. Instructors from The Wine Room and Grazing Haus will discuss the pairings and will have additional wine and cheese available for purchase.
