The German Society's Tastings with Marnie Old

Out of all the participants who have participated in our Beer and Wine Tastings, there was not one who left without a wonderfully warm feeling...and it was not all due to the libations! 

What made this lovely experience possible was the service of Marnie Old.

Pairing German and Austrian Wines with Food

Join us for a delightful and delicious seminar and tasting, demonstrating the food-friendliness of the cool-climate wines of Germany and Austria, guided by Philadelphia's leading wine personality, Marnie Old.

Learn what German and Austrian wines share and why they're so popular among top sommeliers.

Explore how these bright wine styles suit not only traditional Northern European flavors, but are also remarkably well suited to popular styles of international cuisine from Asia and the Americas.

Don't miss this delicious sampling of German and Austrian styles - from sweet to dry, from white to red.
