Your host will be Janice Monteleone of Harry's.
Graduate of Quinnapiac College, Janice began her career as a Paralegal and spent 20 years at a well known and reputable law firm in New Haven. Since meeting Patrick at a wine tasting in May of 2003, she has turned in her Pinot Grigio for Pinot Noir and has become quite the aficionado. Like her husband Patrick, Janice loves to travel the world’s great wine regions and is always looking for to the next place to explore. There is nothing like being there to really make you understand the wine and its culture.
