You know it's coming.It's right around the corner.
The Boston Wine Expo is THE biggest wine event all year in all of Massachusetts -- will 1800 wines be enough for ya? -- and it's happening next week-end.
The thing is, it's a bit of a mob scene.
We mean that in a good way.
Because not only is there wine (and lots of it), there are also cooking demonstrations and wine seminars and and and.
If you're going to come anywhere near maximizing your experience, you need a plan.
Get it, tomorrow night at the Boston Center for Adult Education.
Here's what will happen:
A trained wine educator and an Expo expert team up to orient you, sketch out an itinerary dedicated to your particular interests, and overall help you navigate the two-day extravaganza.
You taste some of the wines featured during the Expo. (Not all 1800, mind you, just a few of the special ones.)
You get admission to either the Saturday or Sunday event. Normally that runs you $75 to $85 or more, but the BCAE is offering this class PLUS admission for $80 all in.
In other words, it's a no-lose deal.
We love it when a plan comes together.

DAILY TIDBIT:
It's reasonable to not immediately think of the Boston Wine Expo as a charity event. Yet since the first Expo 19 years ago, its organizers have donated more than $700,000 to non-profit organizations all over New England. Recipients? They include the Tufts-New England Medical Center's Summer Camp Program for Children with Disabilities and the New England Shelter for Homeless Veterans.
