Wine Symposium and Grand Tasting
Friday, May 11, 2012
Begin the weekend at the Wine Symposium. An educational panel discussion allows you to learn about—and sip exclusively—the premier and specialty wines made by our Winemasters. You and your guests will hear about their wineries, growing practices and what makes their wine so enjoyable. The spectacular Grand Tasting follows, featuring signature menu selections from top restaurants and more than 400 wines for sampling. Attended last year by more than 800 guests, this evening provides sponsors with powerful and meaningful exposure to rising and established Midwest business professionals.

The dinner will feature a multi-course gourmet menu with premier wine selections, a live auction, and dancing.
