JAQK Cellars Wine Tasting (And How to Start a Wine Business)
Wednesday, January 13, 2010
Join us after work on Wednesday, January 13 for a special wine tasting offered by JAQK Cellars. JAQK is an up-and-coming wine brand from Napa / San Francisco that has been the topic of amazed discussion among among wine aficionados, restaurateurs and event managers. This is a unique opportunity to taste great wine and food in an equally great setting (NOMA Gallery on Maiden Lane). You will also hear JAQK Cellars' co-founders speak about their experience raising capital, making the wine, importing fine glass from Italy, branding their product at the World Series of Poker, and selling out of their first vintage despite the worst recession since 1930. The wine's mantra is "Have a little fun". Please join us! We expect this event to sell out quickly!
