The Art of Wine: Monet to Matisse & French Cafe Society

Enjoy a wonderful evening exploring French art and fine French wine. First you will tour the French art galleries with museum educator Mary Lenihan and learn how the end of outmoded laws and regulations after the French Revolution enabled the flourishing Parisian café and restaurant culture. You'll then enjoy a wine tasting of five French wines along with entertaining commentary by Barbara Baxter of Planet Wine. Featured will be a Vintage Cru Classe from the renowned Château Brane-Cantenac, beautifully paired with cheese and pâté.
