Wine Webinars

Quarterly, the Wine Society hosts a wine-related webinar for all CMAA members. Two of these webinars are virtual wine tastings and the two other are on other wine education topics. Attendees are responsible for acquiring the wines on their own for participation in the virtual tasting. One CMAA Association Activity Credit will be awarded to those individuals who register and attend the entire program.

 

Wine on the Web

Active membership is open to all Professional, Alumnus (not less than 21 years of age) and Retired CMAA members. Associate memberships are available to individuals who are 21 years of age or older and are not members of CMAA. These individuals must be from a club that has a CMAA and Wine Society member to sponsor them.
