BlacHistory- A wine tasting and discussion about African Americans' influence on the wine industry.

Join us for the Debut of a signature event we are calling BlacHistory. The team at The BlacOak Wine Club is committed to highlighting the diversity that exists in today's wine industry in hopes of inspiring wine enthusiasts to become wine professionals. Although African Americans make up less than two percent of the working professionals in the wine industry, like many other industries the contributions we have made have greatly influenced how the industry produces, consumes, and markets wine. 

During this event, guests will be introduced to black-owned wine brands while participating in an interactive discussion about African American history in wine.
