The November tasting will be presented by special guest Julie Raynaud, (pictured in box to right) the Western Regional Sales Manager
for European Cellars. Julie will present and discuss wines from Eric Solomon Selections, Jon-David Headrick Selections, and Eric
Solomon's new Indigo Wine. Julie has extensively visited the vineyards and wineries of her native France and brings her expertise to
this tasting.
Eric Solomon (pictured above at left) is the nose behind
the collection prized by wine aficionados far and near. Eric developed his love of wine working in England as a student and established
European Cellars in 1990 after returning to the US. Jon-David
Headrick (pictured above at center) encountered French wine as a student in Paris and joined European Cellars in 2005.
