A unique writing experience…
Wine & Words: Stealing from the Sommelier
Sunday, October 9 at 2 PM
Jockey Hollow Bar & Kitchen, Morristown, NJ
In town for the Morristown Festival of Books? This is the perfect way to end the celebration!
Every good wine has a story, and every good sommelier is an author. In many ways, a sommelier shares the challenges of a poet, the work of describing a sensory experience with mere words. A sommelier’s vocabulary must be precise, muscular, vibrant. Join us for an afternoon at the glorious Jockey Hollow Bar & Kitchen in Morristown, NJ for an afternoon of wine and words.
This workshop offers a lively stretch of the sensory muscles, but is also intended as a reminder that writing is fun. In this relaxed but electric space — the intersection of wine and words — the work that emerges is authentic, creative, and often surprising.
Along with a selection of unique wines, enjoy light refreshments.
