Join us for a Wine Studies Grant and Event Committee collab! Our next Member meetup will be at DECANT in Napa, where we’ll sip aged Napa wines, enjoy some small bites and meet the Wine Studies Grant winners in a laid back setting. Our Member meetups are already a great way to enjoy the fellowship of the other chapter members and at this special meetup we’ll also be celebrating the first winners of the Wine Studies Grant, a grant LDEI-SF has set up to support women advancing their education and professional pathways within the wine industry. For more info on the Grant and the winners check out LDEI-SF Wine Studies Grant.
Register now for this meetup and we’ll see you November 5th, 5:00 p.m. at DECANT Napa Bottle Shop and Bar. There is no charge to attend but registering will enable you to receive event information and reminders. Guests can purchase their own food and drink.
