Wednesday Night Wine Flight: Feb. 2

The Wednesday Night Wine Flight program invites you to "Get to Know Joel Gott Wines." The tasting session is scheduled for Feb. 2 at the Gunrock Pub on the south side of the Silo.

Robin Clement, marketing and project specialist for Sodexo, the company that runs the Gunrock Pub and most other Davis campus food services except the Coffee House, described Gott wines as "one of the hottest California labels right now, bar none!"

The pub partners with the Vintage Aggies Wine Club in presenting "wine flight" events from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. the first Wednesday of every month. Admission is $10, and no reservations are needed.
