      ---Pro Tip---<\/i>
      \nWe highly recommend you take the following steps when participating in this event:<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Swirl - take a moment to swirl the wine in your glass to get some air into it.<\/li>\n
      2. Smell - stick your nose right into the glass and sniff.<\/li>\n
      3. Sip - take the wine into your mouth, swish it around, \u00a0and see how it tastes.<\/li>\n
      4. Spit* - this is important as you'll be tasting about several wines. \u00a0We want this to be a safe event and we want you to appreciate all of the wines you taste!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        *Spit cups, dump buckets, and water will be provided.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
