Hill-Stead Wines: A Prohibition Peek April 15, 2011

The Ambassadors of Hill-Stead Museum, a group of dynamic leaders and professionals dedicated to supporting Hill-Stead's mission through fundraising efforts and new marketing initiatives, invite the public to celebrate the launch of private-label Hill-Stead wines in roaring '20s style, in conjunction with *Jonathan Edwards Winery*.

Theodate Pope's Diplomat husband John Riddle was appreciated by his Prohibition-era guests for having some of the best wines and Champagnes available at all times. At this Prohibition Peek wine launch event, guests will enjoy unlimited tastings of new, exclusive Hill-Stead wines, accompanied by savory hors d'oeuvres and the sounds of MAJK Jazz. From 7–8 pm, participants can tour the museum and the newly restored Wine Cellar. TICKETS are $33/person in honor of 1933, the year Prohibition was repealed. Period attire is encouraged. Proceeds support Hill-Stead Museum.
