Welcome to The Wine Club, a Pasadena-and-beyond group that encourages lovers of the grape (and those who want to be) to explore the wide world of wine through local tastings, wine-and-food events, winery visits and private parties. While many members of this group are true connoisseurs, this is NOT a high-society, button-down, hushed-tones collection of snooty people to sniff and swirl with.
