Wednesday, July 15th, 2026 | Broadbent Wine Selections ft. Sarah Mackinley & Elizabeth George

SUMMER SIPPERS: Celebrate the flavors of summer with a guided tasting featuring a vibrant selection of warm-weather wines. This thoughtful tasting explores a range of refreshing and food-friendly styles, with wines such as sparkling rosé, crisp Sauvignon Blanc, dry Riesling, expressive Chenin Blanc, fruit-forward Pinotage, and bold Mediterranean-inspired reds. Together, these selections offer a journey through some of the world’s most exciting wine regions. From bright citrus and stone fruit aromas to lively acidity, elegant texture, and sun-ripened complexity. Whether enjoyed on a patio, at a backyard gathering, or alongside seasonal fare, each glass captures the spirit, energy, and easy pleasures of summer.
