MARYSVILLE, CA (MPG) – Yuba Sutter Arts & Culture is pleased to announce a new type of interactive virtual event for the community.  Wineries & Ivories will bring together the wineries of the Sutter Buttes and composer and pianist, Greg Johnson, for a fun and social time enjoying fine local wines and great music.

The event will be held via Zoom on Saturday, October 10 from 5 - 6:30pm.  Participants will receive three bottles of wine, enjoy live music and learn about each of the wines you will be tasting from the winemakers themselves.

The online, private event will begin with pianist extraordinaire, Greg Johnson, playing his original contemporary jazz music. Each winemaker will then guide you through a private online tasting of their wine, allowing you, your family, and friends to experience the full essence and taste of each vintage.

Munger Family Vineyard will be tasting their 2016 Merlot.  You will also enjoy a 2015 Barbera from Sicilia Winery and Cordi Winery’s 2014 Estate Malbec. Greg will play in between each tasting, giving you time to fully enjoy each wine.

There are only 20 spots available for this unique event hosted by Yuba Sutter Arts & Culture! Register on Eventbrite or at yubasutterarts.org and your three bottles of wine, appetizer recipes paired for each wine and information about each winery will be delivered personally to you by our staff. The cost is $95 per registration.

The beauty of this event is that with one registration you can have as many people as you like gather in your home to enjoy each bottle! There may even be some wine specials for participants available at the end of the evening!

Register today and experience another aspect of what makes life in Yuba-Sutter so special.
