[Events]
[New Orleans]
Martin Wine Cellar is pleased to announce the first 3 months' worth of the 2007 Season of Tasting Events.

Seated tastings will be informative, featuring knowledgeable guest speakers. Wine lovers will have a chance to swirl, sniff, and sip their way through eight wines accompanied by and matched perfectly with delicious artisanal cheeses from our Gourmet Food Department. They will explore wine producing regions, terminology, wine-making techniques, and more. After tasting all the wines, there will be a group discussion.

Our Casual Reception-style tasting will afford tasters the opportunity to walk around while tasting between 12 and 20 wines poured by our wine consultants. These wines will be complimented by artisanal cheeses and delectable delights from our Catering and Gourmet Food Departments. Tasters may casually stroll from table to table comparing various wines discussing them with other tasters as well as with our wine experts on hand.
