Champagne and sparkling wines are not just for celebrations. However, if you are going to celebrate, then learn how to determine what type of bubbles are best for your special occasion. And do this while taking a journey through classic jazz and the music of Chicago!

This is a pre-recorded video that will be added to our Virtual Event Series. The videos will be permanently hosted on our Vimeo Showcase Page so you can watch at your convenience, at any time.
