The winemakers will teach you the various aspects of wine tasting, such as:
     - Why you should swirl the wine in your glass
     - What are good aromas as well as bad aromas
     - Good colors and bad colors
     - The difference between a red wine and a white wine (besides color)
     - The art of winemaking and much, much more!

Each guest will receive a Kent State University Alumni Association wine glass and have a chance to win a wine tasting gift basket. Transportation will be provided by Go2Go Taxi from the Williamson Alumni Center to the winery and back to campus.
