Event directors have announced the wine list for this year’s Borovino wine tasting event. Wines have been selected not only for seasoned wine drinkers, but for novices as well.
“I remember going into a wine store and being completely overwhelmed with the choices,” says Event Director Natalie Vincent. “This is a great opportunity to be able to sample many of those wines, without having to spend a lot of time or money, and find out which ones you’d want to take home with you.”
The event has made a number of changes to last year’s setup. Borovino’s new nonprofit partner, Blue Raider Athletic Association, will be receiving 15 percent of the NET tickets sales from the event. The Blue Raider Athletic Association helps provide an education to student athletes through supporting scholarships for 17 men and women’s sports at MTSU.
“Last year was the first Borovino and we are so excited to be back; bigger and better than ever!” says Vincent. “We have taken the feedback from our attendees and made some adjustments that will prove to provide an even better event experience for everyone involved.”
This year, the event will be held on Saturday, April 6, from 5–9 p.m., indoors at the Embassy Suites Murfreesboro. Tickets are priced at $29 plus tax in advance and can be found online at borovino.com. All wines and entertainment are included in the ticket price. Food will be available for purchase.
The Murfreesboro Symphony will be returning to Borovino this year to entertain attendees for the first half of the event. At 7 p.m., the Susan Mullen Ensemble will take the stage with a lively string trio playing today’s most popular hits.
Borovino is sponsored by Embassy Suites Murfreesboro, Stones River Total Beverages and is produced by Clear Channel Media and Entertainment. CCME also hosts a number of other annual sell-out events including Brewsboro, Wine on the River and MAFIAoZA’S Music City Brewer’s Festival.
