Aureole and American Sommelier’s 12-Session Wine Series

Aureole has teamed with American Sommelier – the nation’s preeminent wine education organization – to host a monthly series of experiential wine events. The 12-session series will  take place at Aureole one Monday of each month and is designed to help participants make informed and intelligent wine choices while exploring unique topics.
