ROC: The Judgement of Rochester
About this event
The Judgement of Rochester is back and better than ever! For our Third Annual Judgement, we are going to mix things up a little. We will be blind tasting and identifying eight different grapes and the growing regions for individual wines - all in the form of a BINGO game! Yes, that’s right, as you taste the wines and determine what they are and where you think they were produced, you will be marking your guesses on a BINGO board, or in our case, a WINE-O board. We will be collecting all boards with a correct WINE-O and entering them in a drawing for a Women For WineSense ROC Chapter hoodie.
Do not miss out on this evening of fun, networking, food and wine. We are hoping for fantastic weather this year so that we will be able to enjoy the beautiful patio at Woodcliff. (Although, that tent wasn’t so bad either!) There will be some seating, high top tables and the wrap around bench that encompasses the entire patio. This will be an evening of grazing stations and mingling. There will not be a sit down dinner but we promise - you will leave full! We will be having the same exceptional grazing stations as we have the past two years so get ready for a lot of laughs, delicious food, wine and WINE-O!!
Remember, a Judgement of Rochester wine glass is included in your ticket price.
Start warming up on those five steps of wine tasting and get your tickets early. This is going to be a fun night and we cannot wait to see you there!
