Calling all oenophiles - meet a panel of professional wine connoisseurs, columnists, and consultants at an event hosted by The New School. Discussions will center on wine’s role in our culture as well as the influential work of Robert Mondavi, one of America’s most recognized family-owned winery proprietors.
Robert Mondavi believed, “the path to a more gracious lifestyle leads through the appreciation of wine, food, and art”. His Italian roots provided the basis on which an empire was built.
Speakers explore his decisions as a producer, his marketing practices, his international collaborations and global influence, and related cultural and economic issues.
Panelists:
Tyler Colman, author of Wine Politics
Frank J. Prial, former New York Times wine columnist
Charles Scicolone, sommelier and wine consultant
Julia Flynn Siler, author of the bestselling The House of Mondavi: The Rise and Fall of an American Wine Dynasty
Andrew F. Smith, culinary historian and New School faculty member and moderator
