The Local – An Evening w/ A Master Sommelier

June 23, 2023 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

$50.00

If you’re always eager to try new wines and are curious to learn about how wine is produced Down Under (and all over), then this educational tasting evening is for you. The night will feature five  Australian wines, and, of course, refreshments.  This is hosted by master sommelier Jane Lopes.  Join us Friday, June 23 at 6:30pm for a deep dive into Australian wines.

What’s a Master Sommelier? Folks who earn this title are the world’s foremost experts on wine. It’s a pretty selective group – there are currently only 273 and only 25 women master sommeliers in the United States.

Lopes has enjoyed an amazing career in the wine industry. She’s worked at New York’s Eleven Madison Park, Nashville’s The Catbird Seat, Chicago’s The Violet Hour, and, most recently, as the wine director at Attica, one of Australia’s most celebrated restaurants. She was featured on Esquire network’s 2015 television series Uncorked, which follows six New York City sommeliers in pursuit of the master sommelier title (which she attained in 2018). In September of 2019, she published her first book, a personal and educational guide to wine called Vignette: Stories of Life and Wine in 100 Bottles. And in 2020, she and her husband Jonathan Ross co-founded their own Australian wine imports company: Legend.

Seating is limited.
