990-EZ for the year ended December 31, 2025

Program accomplishments

  • Knowledge and Education: We learned and explored about varieties of wine with a few events that centered on different wine makers and their knowledge of the wine industry. This included dinners with different winemakers to learn characteristics of their wine.
  • One of our objectives is for our members to learn about various California wines. We held 8 of these events during 2025. Each event had anywhere from 20 - 60 attendees including members and their spouse or guest. Events included educational wine tastings and dinners with wine pairings of California wines.
  • We have added new varietals to our wine collection which we are educating our members on and using in our events. We are using up some of the older wines at events to reduce our collection.
