Gorton CenterCelebrate the season in style with an elegant evening of wine tasting at our refined Summer White Wine Tasting. Inspired by the sophistication and freshness of a classic white party, this special event invites you to sip, savor, and socialize in a relaxed yet elevated atmosphere.
Your guided tasting will feature a handpicked selection of clean, crisp white wines and effervescent sparkling wines—each chosen to highlight the bright, expressive flavors that make summer sipping such a joy.
As you sample each varietal, you’ll learn about the unique characteristics, regions, and sustainable practices behind the wines, curated and presented by Oakwood Vines—Lake Forest’s trusted vendor of high-quality, sustainably produced wines. Their passion for conscious sourcing and exceptional taste makes them the perfect partner for this tasting journey.
To enhance the tasting experience, a selection of thoughtfully paired light bites will be served, crafted to complement the flavor profiles of the wines and elevate your palate throughout the evening.
In keeping with the theme, guests are encouraged to wear white attire. Whether you’re a seasoned wine lover or simply curious to explore new favorites, this event offers a perfect blend of education, indulgence, and summer celebration.
