Symphony of the Americas 25th Anniversary Celebration at the Wine Watch

"...Once upon a time, I drank a little wine,
was as happy as could be..."

Get Down by Gilbert O'Sullivan

We will be as happy as can be this coming Friday with over 25 wines and some great food from Wine Watch Catering.  Every year we do a big event with the Symphony to help fund the starving artists here in Broward County.  This is a first time event but a sort of scaled down version of the Wines of the World Tasting.

The Symphony of the Americas celebrates its 25th Anniversary Season with 25 Days of Musical events, as a gift to our Community. Join us at the Wine Watch, on Friday, January 11th, as Head Bottle Watcher, Andrew Lampasone presents 25 different wines for tasting, accompanied by hors d’oeuvres by Wine Watch Catering. Musical selections by keyboard and string duo of the Symphony of the Americas will complete the evening. 7 – 9 pm. $25 per person. Please make checks payable to Symphony of the Americas .

Prepayment can be made by credit card through the Symphony of the Americas office. Reservations may be made at the Symphony of the Americas office: 954 – 335 – 7002, info@sota.org, OR Wine Watch 954-523 – 9463,or andy@winewatch.com
