Passport to South American Wines

The event is a blind wine tasting competition that gives wine-loving teams (of 2-3 people) an opportunity to taste a variety of wines, win great prizes, and meet new friends all while raising money for a good cause.

The theme for this event is South American wines under $15.

Each team of 2-3 must bring 3 bottles of the EXACT SAME WINE. Upon arrival, volunteers will veil and number two bottles that will be set out for tasting. The third bottle will be left unopened and will not be tasted or displayed. Each team will complete a score sheet ranking the various veiled wines. The team that brought the top ranked wine will take home 75% of the unopened bottles; the second place team will take home 25% of the unopened bottles. The team that brought the least favorite wine will take their unopened bottle home.

Minimum donation of $20 per person to attend to benefit the causes supported by the GFWC Tampa Junior Woman's club. They include but are not limited to the following:

One Voice for Children

MADD

Faces of Courage

Metropolitan Ministries

Donations will automatically enter you into the drawings for all the great door prizes! Payment can be made through paypal, evite or at the door the night of the event. However please RSVP prior to the event as space is limited.
