Bonjour tout le monde!!!!

The Harvard University Club invites you to an all-Ivy League Wine tasting and power networking event at the L’Alliance Française  entitled: "Pulling The Cork . . . and other things you need to know about wine".  Join alumni from Brown, Cornell, Harvard, Princeton, Wharton and Yale for this one-night, next-step into Tasting, Drinking, and Enjoying wine. Tasting because that’s how you figure out what you like. Drinking because drinking good wine is the object of all that tasting (however much fun all the tasting may be). And enjoying because there are things you can do to enjoy wine more without spending more money on wine.  This is a first come, first served event - so, please avoid disappointment and register early.  Once all the seats have sold, the event will close completely.  
 

This two-hour class, taught by Bear Dalton, will lead you through a tasting of 10 wines including red, white, sparkling and dessert wines. Discussion will include what to look for when tasting, pairing wine with food, wine serving and storage temperatures (and why they matter), proper wine glasses (why they are important and when they are not), pulling the cork (there is both more and less to it than you might think), and more.  Here are all the details:

 

Pulling the Cork . . . will cost $50 per person. 
{to participate, you must be a grad, or have an affiliation with one of the participating colleges}

The class will meet at 7pm on Thursday, March 16, 2017 at L’Alliance Française.
