The Wine & Food Society of Jacksonville continued with #4 of its wine classes with this one featuring Old World Wines vs. New World Wines. A wonderful menu of tapas accompanied each course of wines, created by our favorite wine and tapas bar, Royal Palm Village Wine & Tapas. The wines were chosen by Joseph Murray from Stacole Wines. We encourage interested potential members to attend these informal classes so they can get to know us a little better.
