About

The Foster Wine Club is an opportunity for MBA students to socialize and network over a shared appreciation of wine. Our goal is to help students feel confident in navigating wine varietals and food pairings and can carry themselves with confidence in the next professional or informal setting. Our events involve fun social, educational, and networking oriented events including guided tastings, wine socials, and speakers from the wine industry. ​ We encourage novice and experience wine lovers to join us! ​
