Something to Wine About with Laurie Forster
Sacred Heart Parish Center (1031 Sprenkle Rd., Spring Grove, PA 17362)

TV personality, award-winning author and sommelier, Laurie Forster, delivers an edgy, off-beat hilarious seminar where wine meets punchline. Using her down to earth approach to “wine education,” Forster peels back the labels of a few of her favorite wines while she exposes some the deep secrets of the wine industry and why she thinks it’s so darn funny! Relax with a tasting of 4 wines, because with Forster there are no formalities when it comes to drinking. This is a “tasting” you will never forget.
During the seminar, Forster leaves no stone unturned when it comes to talking about wine and why we like it. Maybe you love the full body of a Malbec or the crisp acidity of a Pinot Grigio. Who knows? Who cares? But by the end of this show three things are certain. You are confident about what you like, exhausted from laughing and in a wine induced state of euphoria!
Tickets are $30 and include welcome reception with glass of Prosecco. Cheese and Crackers. 4 tastings of wine during the hour long show, followed by Laurie mingling with guests, answering questions, & photo opportunities. There will also be raffles of wine baskets & winery tours, and Laurie’s award-winning book, “The Sipping Point: A Crash Course in Wine” will be available for purchase.

NOTE: All attending this event must be a minimum of 21 years of age and event staff may request proof of age, drivers license, etc.

Antipodean Evening with a Taste of Australia & New Zealand
We all know and love the Australia-New Zealand rivalry. It’s a bit like watching siblings fight over Lego sets. Topics they bicker over include Russell Crowe’s nationality, each other’s dodgy sportsmanship, who has the better landscapes and whose climate is more tolerable. Regarding their wines, Laurie digs into the data to see who does wine better and to settle the debate once and for all.
Join Laurie at the Robert Morris Inn for her hilarious show where Chef Salter’s food and wine meets punch line! Over a fine four course dinner, Laurie peels back the labels of a customized selection of four accompanying wines for you and exposes the truth of her life in the wine business and as a mom in suburbia hell. Relax with a glass (or four!) of wine, because with Laurie there are no formalities when it comes to drinking. This is a wine tasting and dinner you will never forget.

A Taste of Oregon & Washington
Oregon shares its location on the 45th parallel with Burgundy, France and focuses on the traditional Burgundian varieties of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Pinot Gris is also important, but the Oregonians give that grape a more Alsatian swing. Washington, with its 30,000 acres planted to vine, is the second largest producer of wine in the United States.
