The Periwinkle Foundation celebrates Houston\u2019s premier wine tasting and sommelier competition sponsored by Chord Energy on Thursday, November 19th at The Post Oak Hotel at Uptown where the city\u2019s finest sommeliers will be put to the test for the title of Iron Sommelier. Benefitting The Periwinkle Foundation programs for pediatric cancer patients at Texas Children\u2019s Cancer and Hematology Center, guests are invited to sample wines in a private setting. Competing sommeliers will select three wines which focus on a particular wine region, grape or style and personally present the wines they are pouring, while conversing with guests as they taste and compare. A panel of judges will rate the sommeliers on their wine choice, presentation, creativity, and knowledge of their wine selections. Guests will have access to an exciting wine pull, auction, raffle and children\u2019s art sales. They can also cast their \u201ccorks\u201d for the People\u2019s Choice Award.<\/p>\n
