Foxcroft Wine Co. Greenville hosting two French wine events in September

September 4, 2020

Foxcroft Wine Co. Greenville will host two French Wine Events on Saturday, September 19, with the help of special guest and co-host Deb Lewis, National Sales Manager for Vintage ’59 Imports, one of the truly great curated portfolios of family-run French estates.

France has left its mark on every aspect of how wines are made… from the grape varieties themselves, to when and how to blend, the vocabulary around winemaking and the elusive concept of terroir. Guests will learn about wines from four regions of France at our Tour de France Wine Lunch, and explore the history of Champagne in our hour-long Masterclass.

*Each event requires its own ticket. Guests who purchase tickets to both events will receive a $10 Foxcroft Wine Co. Gift Card to be used at a later date.
