The season of celebrating with friends and family is upon us!

Join us for a festive exploration of the wines of Champagne, one of France’s most fascinating and celebrated wine regions. Discover a range of exceptional Champagnes and learn more about what makes this iconic region—and its wines—so special.

Best of all, you’ll have the opportunity to purchase these festive bubbles through us at prices well below retail, making it the perfect time to stock up for all your holiday celebrations.

This tasting will be led by Vicente Pina, MBA, CSW, Champagne Master, the spirited founder of Vin de Vin Wine Tasting & Collecting Consultants—a company built on the belief that learning about wine should feel more like a good conversation than a classroom lecture. Portuguese by birth but unmistakably wine by vocation, Vicente has spent over 30 years swirling, sipping, studying, spilling and storytelling his way through the global wine and food world. Armed with a sharp palate, a relaxed teaching style, and an endless supply of great anecdotes, he’s the perfect guide for the wide world of Champagne.

Discover, taste, learn and take your favorite wines home with the Alliance Wine Series—monthly wine experience. Each month, we bring together wine lovers of all levels—whether you’re a curious newcomer or a seasoned connoisseur—for a curated tasting and education session featuring French and international wines, guided by industry experts.  This program is offered in English.

Admission is $49, with a 15% discount automatically applied for Alliance members—one of the many benefits of being part of our community. All sales are final.
