Days of Wine and Popes
Preparing for the Pope!
We are excited about Pope Francis’ visit to Philly, and are thus showcasing people and events of historical, papal import – through wine! Join us for three tasting events on the trails of Popes, exile, crusades, pageantry, and gallantry.
Can we discuss wines and Popes without Châteauneuf-du-pape? I don’t think so! And why would we want to? Our second "Popes" tasting is devoted to this lasting wine-legacy of the papacy in Avignon. Châteauneuf-du-pape is reknowned for its wines, and we will taste both red and white wines worthy of any Pope. We'll also taste one of the greater region's divine rosés.
This tasting will be led by Jill Weber, Jet's owner and Wining Archaeologist, as part of our Global Vineyard Passport Series. Your ticket entitles you to our 5-wine tasting and light snacks, plus 15% off your evening's bar tab.
*You must be 21 or over to participate
