Twin Cities Wine Club
OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
I am excited to offer wine enthusiasts in the Twin Cities an opportunity to experience a first class wine experience via the Twin Cities Wine Club. Each event will focus on a specific themes and will include appetizers, hand selected premium wines, and wine education.
The club is not as focused as the Minneapolis Wine Club but more affordable and as always Wineglas pours the best wines in the Twin Cities compared to the mystery wines of Amusee and other wine classes.
