New Orleans' Business and Social Network for Women Women & Wine on Wednesdays connects women: for building new relationships and for re-connecting old ones, through a unique facilitated forum - an ideal opportunity for women in New Orleans who are striving to balance their own needs with those of their families, jobs, community involvement. The monthly events fulfill an ongoing and critical need for women to be able to share resources and discover new opportunities as they transition through the many stages of their lives, providing access to a larger network of both business,social, and community connections - for the growth and development of their professional and personal lives.
Wine, for centuries, has proven to liven the senses, cause thoughts to flow, and enhance friendly idea exchanges - so wine is a perfect accompaniment, blending to foster a relaxed and welcoming environment for sharing resources, idea exchanges, and a great reason to take time to maintain their own personal overall well-being.
Events are held each month on the third Wednesday. There are no dues or fees to participate. Come enjoy a glass of wine, catch-up with old friends, or meet new ones.

This month's wine specials for $5 a glass:
|
Whitehaven Sauvignon Blanc 2010 (New Zealand) Vibrant currant-leaf, citrus and gooseberry aromas, with freshly cut herb undertones. A full flavoured, medium bodied wine, with an abundance of archetypal currant and gooseberry flavours, that linger on the dry, clean finish.

Castle Rock Cabernet Sauvignon (California)
Castle Rock Cabernet Sauvignon is produced from grapes grown in California’s Paso Robles growing region. The Santa Lucia Mountain Range helps to create a climate which provides ideal growing conditions for Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, with hot summer days and cool nights. This is a classic, rich Cabernet Sauvignon with a dark purple color and expressive aromas of black cherry and spice. On the palate the wine is intense, luscious and full-bodied with a rich core of berry and earthy flavors, and there are hints of spice and vanilla in its long harmonious finish.
