Whew! It’s finally beginning to feel like autumn!
Learn to pair holiday foods with wine. Our October 16 meeting guest speaker is Roxanne O’Brien who is a food and wine / spirits educator, caterer, and a certified sherry expert. Roxanne is a retired faculty at American River College’s culinary arts program and continues to educate all with food and drink pairings through her wine, cheese, honey, and chocolate tastings.
Roxanne will guide us through wine pairings with foods that have a high probability of showing up at a gathering soon. Cheese? Check. Something with pumpkin? Roxanne’s got you covered. Plus, Roxanne can answer any of your holiday food and wine pairing questions.
