Terrace Club maps: 3rd Floor, 4th Floor

Over the years, The Heinen’s/WVIZ World Series of Wine Grand Tastings have become famous for their enormous variety of wine and lavish array of hors d’oeuvres. The Terrace Club at Progressive Field is the setting for this world-class celebration of the vine. Whatever your preference and wherever your palate takes you, The Grand Tastings have it all.  Both major and minor wine producing regions are represented, and you can explore to your heart’s content as nearly 400 wines from 150 wineries are presented. Winemakers and their representatives will be on hand to share their knowledge and answer your questions.

Your admission includes samples of all wines, a souvenir crystal wine glass, a bountiful display of taste-tempting hors d’oeuvres, a tasting program, and the opportunity to bid on a variety of wine-related items that will be available at a patrons-only Silent Auction.  As with all events, your ticket purchase benefits WVIZ/PBS.

Plus: To thank you for attending, for every pair of tickets purchased, you can receive a year’s subscription (15 issues) to Wine Spectator Magazine – free. (A $34 value.) Information will be sent to you with your event tickets.
