The mission of the UW MBA Wine Club is to educate its members about wine and accompanying cuisines through wine tastings that are both enjoyable and responsible. Whether an individual is a novice or an established connoisseur, the UW MBA wine club events provide a forum for all members to experience new wines and spend time with other students in a fun and informal way. The goal is for members to acquire a deeper knowledge of wine tasting techniques, command of wine jargon, familiarity of various grapes and wine regions, and a background understanding of the expanding wine industry. In general, the UW MBA Wine Club encourages its members to explore wines and share their impressions with other members, family and friends.
The UW MBA Wine Club seeks to host roughly a dozen events during the year, which includes wine tastings, presentations by industry representatives and trips to vineyards. In addition, the UW MBA Wine Club sponsors tastings of other alcoholic beverages (beer, champagne, ports, sakes, etc) if requested by its members.
