Last activity in Wine Tasting series
at the Canadian Museum of Civilization


Gatineau, Quebec, February 21, 2005 — In conjunction with Gift of the Gods: The Art of Wine from the Ancient World to Canadian Vineyards, an exhibition on display until April 3, 2005, the Canadian Museum of Civilization is presenting special programming and activities designed for wine-lovers.

As part of its Wine Tasting series, the Museum invites you to one last encounter with Dominique Lavoie from the SAQ or Stacey Metulynsky from Groovy Grapes. Knowing how to match the right wines with the right foods is an art that is not difficult and is always appreciated. In this activity, you will learn wine tasting techniques, the order of serving and the elements to accompany the wines during a tasting.
