This week, the Smith College Club of Great Britain hosted the grand opening of its Smith College Wine Club. The new club aims to promote the enjoyment and appreciation of wine. The group hopes to hold a series of regular wine tastings, “providing a convivial atmosphere for learning and networking”.
The event was the first in a three-part inaugural tasting. Smithies were treated to an “introduction and brief history of the world of bubbles with a few clever words from women who were very influential in this world”.
Vicky Xuefei Li-Schmidt ’11, who recently completed her studies at WSET’s London Wine & Spirit School hosted–along with guest speaker Andrea Viera ’86–at Andrea’s shop, Last Drop Wines.
