Black Men in Wine Celebration and Dinner

On September 8, Urban Connoisseurs in partnership with Rejuvé Wellness Center & Spa, and the San Francisco African American Chamber of Commerce will introduce the new event to the Bay Area. 
This unique event will combine the talent and success of African American winemakers and vintners with a dish designed specifically to each wine being served.
