New Winter Programs With Swampscott Recreation

Got the Winter Blahs? Wine Makes Everything Better!

Shake off the chill and join us for a relaxed and fun February wine class!

On Thursday, February 7th Maia Gosselin of Sip Wine Education will present a 1-night wine class sponsored by the Town of Swampscott's Recreation department. Taking a "trip around the world" approach, we'll taste 6 wines from different countries learning about various regions, current trends and the concept of terroir. With Valentine's Day around the corner we’ll be sure to sample some bubbly! Additionally, we will feature light culinary compliments. Cost is $25 per person. Class time will be 7-9pm at the Swampscott Senior Center. Tasting notes will be provided.
