Join us for "Sip & Savor," a progressive wine and food tasting celebrating the 2026 Notre Dame Family Wines Collection at Morris Inn's Private Dining Room.
This year's collection honors our timeless alma mater and the exact moment its verses were penned by Rev. Charles L. O'Donnell, C.S.C-poet, rhetoric professor, and former University President.
Get ready for an incredible evening with stations, each featuring a delicious wine and food pairing.
You'll also find a fantastic grazing table with artisan cheeses and breads, as well as a dessert table with treats like dark chocolate espresso macarons and pear & hazelnut financiers.
It's the perfect chance to discover this year's collection. Wines will be available for purchase after the event.
Don't miss out—this will be our final Notre Dame Family Wines event of the year!
