Wine Club Event - "Soup's On" Returns

We will sample four delicious summer-time soups, each perfectly paired with a Fleming Jenkins wine. Included in the evening's festivities, Chef David Page returns to share with us his culinary insights on matching each wine and soup combination and on preparing these great summer soups at home. You'll receive his personal recipes for each soup, and we'll offer some special wine pricing at this fun experience.
