Event details
Every business person should know how to order wine with confidence during business dinner functions; and business gets done by networking. This event will help you feel more confident doing both.
After breaking the ice with some fun networking exercises, Fern Heinig, a certified oenophile, will lead us through the wine selection process. Ms. Heinig was certified by the Wine and Spirits Education Trust (WSET), a global wine school in London for those who are in the wine and spirits industry.
A wine tasting will be part of this event. Everyone knows that networking is easier over a glass of wine. Food and non-alcoholic beverages will also be served.
Learning objectives
1. Have confidence making new business contacts
2. Order wine with confidence in a business setting
3. Demonstrate an understanding of wine elements to appreciate why you like certain wines
