The Art of Champagne Tasting Soirée with Artisan Cheese at The Doyle Dupont

The International Club of DC cordially invites you to a luxurious gathering of ICDC members who appreciate the art of fine bubbles. Indulge in a curated champagne and sparkling wine tasting led by Wine Director of The Pembroke, Kyle Sheaffer, and discover the different methods behind sparkling wines across the world.

A luminous Champagne of depth and elegance, unfolding with whispers of brioche, ripe fruit, and silken bubbles. A luxurious pour that feels timeless and beautifully composed.

A vibrant rosé that shimmers with strawberry, rose petals, and lively acidity. Romantic, refreshing, and full of celebratory charm.

Bright and spirited, this cava bursts with red-berry sparkle and playful freshness. A joyful sip made for conversation and delight.

Soft, floral, and irresistibly inviting, with notes of pear and white peach dancing through delicate bubbles. A graceful, easy-to-love classic.

Elegant and expressive, offering citrus, green apple, and a touch of toasted richness. Fine bubbles carry a lingering, harmonious finish that captivates.

Kindly note that champagne/sparkling wine selections are subject to change, without notice.

Attend by yourself or with friends to experience an exquisitely curated unforgettable night of sparkling elegance, thoughtful conversation, and refined indulgence as you meet ICDC members and make new friends!

The tasting will be expertly guided by Wine Director Kyle Sheaffer, who brings to life each wine’s soul: its origin, production method, tasting notes, and character. As glasses glide from one taste to the next, we will accompany the pours with carefully selected cheeses — each pairing composed to accentuate the nuances of the bubbles. You’ll have the opportunity to linger over your favorites, ask questions, and compare impressions in a warm, convivial atmosphere.

As you arrive, relax amidst soft lighting, local artwork, and the whispered elegance of fine details. Sip a welcome flute as you mingle with fellow ICDC members, sparkling wine aficionados, and new acquaintances in the company of a shared passion for wines that sparkle.

This is a night to slow down, savor, and connect. Rekindle your love for champagne and sparkling wines, and forge new friendships with kindred spirits, with an appreciation for wines that sparkle! The refined ambiance of The the Doyle DuPont is an ideal canvas where you will experience the eveninig either at the Pembroke or one of the other luxurious event spaces or ballooms: from the soft hum of conversation to the sparkle of flutes in low light, it will frame every moment in style.
