Fountain View Village has announced its upcoming fundraising event, “Festive Flavors,” featuring Arizona-based Sommelier Wesam “Sam” Kawa.

Kawa has had the privilege of serving for many years on the floor of Arizona’s top restaurants such as Kai and Cafe Monarch and was named a 2019 Rudd Scholar by the Court of Master Sommeliers.

Kawa strives to provide attendees with their own unique wine-tasting journey, and his ability to combine his expertise, fervor and hospitality guarantees his guests fine dining experiences, the release said.
