About this event

Join EO Atlanta for an afternoon of exceptional wine, hospitality, and connection with Ryan at The Rooftop at Ponce City Market. This will be more than your average wine tasting, it will be an engaging wine education experience.

  • Ryan Hughes will guide guests through a thoughtfully curated selection of wines, sharing the stories behind each bottle and helping you better understand how to taste, evaluate, and appreciate wine with confidence.
  • After 12 years as SWOOP, the Philadelphia Eagles' mascot, Ryan traded the sidelines for Napa Valley in 2011 to pursue his passion for wine. He spent four years at Bounty Hunter as one of its top wine scouts before joining Jackson Family Wines, where he created the first direct-to-consumer program for The Spire Collection.
  • Experience Ryan's passion for bringing people together through incredible wines, fascinating stories, and memorable experiences, all against the backdrop of one of Atlanta's most iconic rooftops.
  • Come for the wine education. Stay for the stories, golden-hour rooftop views, and EO connection.
