THE MARIE PIERRE WINE CLUB 2014 - SEPTEMBER EDITION

Did I hear somebody say wine? Wine is what you drink when you become a lady, when you get past all the campus hullabaloo of vodka and other spirits with unpronounceable names, when you stop trying to fit in and start being comfortable with who you are, when you start looking for a husband and acting ratchet doesn't fit the bill. Somebody say Amen!? Haha. I digress...

WHEN: 6th September 2014

WHERE: Nairobi Arboretum

Time: 3.00pm - 7.00pm

Join Master Sommelier, Juan Cambil and MC Kamal Kaur for a fun afternoon of wine tasting at the fourth edition of The Marie Pierre Wine Club 2014. Get to taste quality wines from the following wine companies:

- Casks & Barrels will showcase Italian wines.

- Posner & Klein will showcase Chilean wines.

- Makkin will showcase American (Californian) wines.

- The Wine Company will showcase Spanish wines.
