Outdoor wine tasting, food pairings and live music by Roger Hoard. 6:30 p.m. Friday, September 14 at the Stifel Fine Arts Center.

Oglebay Institute hosts some of Wheeling’s most popular wine events. The Art of Wine series features wine and food pairings in the elegant, yet intimate, splendor of one of Wheeling’s grand properties. The 100-year-old Edemar Mansion (now known as the Stifel Fine Arts Center) is the former home of one of Wheeling’s most prominent families and is also listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Wine selections for the Sept. 14 event include Evolution Red Blend, Crusher Pinot Noir, Old Soul Cabernet, Tiziano Pinot Grigio, Tropical Moscato and Custard Chardonnay.  Each wine is paired with a dish from Ye Olde Alpha.

$35/$30 OI members. Register online or call 304-242-7700.

More than the just wine…

During wine events, you can view the art on display in the gallery. As you explore the historic mansion, you will also marvel at the stained glass windows, grand central staircase, marble floors and the majestic fireplace in the formal living room. During warm weather, stroll through the gardens. You can purchase your favorite vintages, too. Most of all, unwind and have fun. Oglebay Institute wine events are great places to discover new wines and meet other wine lovers, too. These popular events are also perfect for date nights and evenings out with friends.
