St. Louis Rams To Host Missouri Wine Night

On Thursday, September 26th 2013 the St. Louis Rams are having Wine Night at the Edward Jones Dome featuring six Missouri wineries.  Eric Simonis with the Rams’ marketing office said that a similar event two years ago was so successful that the team decided to expand the event.

At the September 26th game with the San Francisco, attendees will receive a seat to the game on the 200 and 300 level plus wine tastings that begin at the start of the game and go until the end of third quarter.  The cost per ticket is $150. Season ticket holders on the 200 and 300 levels will receive the wine tasting as part of their ticket package.

Five Missouri wineries have committed to pour at Wine Night- Augusta, St. James, Montelle, Sugar Creek and Les Bourgeois. Simonis said he hope to have the sixth Missouri winery selected soon.  “This is a great time for our fans and we’re glad to be able to support Missouri wine,” Simonis said.
