Wine Centered Women     March 11-13, 2010

March 11, 2010 - All About Women
March 12, 2010 - Bella Toscana


Wine Centered Women was founded by Ann-Marie Adams in 2009 as a pre-event activity connected to Hilton Head Island’s annual Spring event known as the Hilton Head Island Wine & Food Festival. It began as an outreach effort across the electronic highway through Facebook to generate buzz and create connections between women interested in wine. Local food and wine related representatives contribute to the content of the discussion throughout the course of the year, making suggestions on wine and wine related products while at the same time inviting women from across the country to join them on the island for the HHI Wine and Food Festival. Those who answer the call will find an opportunity at the festival’s Public Tasting and Auction each year to meet in person to socialize, participate in educational forums on wine and to continue their discussion live and in person!
