About this event
**PLEASE READ AS THERE IS AN IMPORTANT RECENT CHANGE for the blind tasting at Maxwell Park only: PREPAYMENT WILL BE REQUIRED TO ATTEND. Please note that refunds for cancellations are allowed up to 24 hours before the event start time. (But please cancel as soon as you know.)** **Here is the pre-pay link:** https://https://www.giftrocker.com/secure/Order/?h=e6c5f059 **Because there is No linkage between the Meetup App and Maxwell’s prepayment link, you can’t rely on Meetup's RSVP feature to know if there are still spots available. You will only know with certainty that there are no more spots available if you are rejected while trying to prepay.** **The real maximum number of attendees will remain at 14, but since the Meetup App won’t let me make it a requirement to pre-pay when you RSVP "Yes," I’m not going to set a cap on Meetup's RSVP list, and we will see how that goes.

Each flight is $20. A 20% gratuity and tax is added to that. Food and other wines are also…
