Welcome to
Wine Tasters Club
Our purpose is to educate members about wines from around the world, and to combine the wine tasting experience with a fine dining experience in which the food and wine pairings are identified and discussed.

The Basics
About our Dinners
We look forward to seeing you at our dinners, typically occurring on the third Thursday of the month, September through May. Club members enjoy exceptional food, friends, and WINE. Following the dinner, you can order your favorite wines at prices below retail.
At 10 am on the morning after the event you can find a flyer with the next month’s event menu and pricing in the clubhouse kiosks and on this website.
PLEASE NOTE: The deadline for a full refund is the SATURDAY before the event at 5:00 PM. After this deadline and until the following Wednesday at 5:00 PM, a refund will be issued only if the reservation can be filled by another member. Call Linda Smith at 805.428.7603 for changes or cancellations.

Policies
MEAL POLICY The Wine Tasters Club offers a Special Entreé Option each month that is vegan and gluten free. Unfortunately, we are only able to offer a vegan/gluten-free option for the entreé (main) course. Please check the monthly flyer for a description.
As a club, we are unable to make accommodations outside of the Special Entreé Option due to cost and logistical concerns of serving a multi-course dinner to such a large group in a timely manner.
For those ordering the Special Entreé, a card will be provided at check-in to indicate your Entreé option. No changes may be made within three (3) business days of the event.
SERVICE ANIMALS We follow the policy developed by the SCPD HOA, and paraphrased here. Sun City Palm Desert Community Association welcomes any well-behaved service animal in the company of its owner. Dogs whose sole function is to provide comfort or emotional support do not qualify as service animals
under the American Disabilities Act (ADA).
Service Animal Definition: Service Animals are defined as dogs that are individually trained to do work or perform specific tasks for people with disabilities
Extraordinary wines at exceptional prices.
