Sun. Feb. 10 Are you an oenophilist? We'd have to be honest and say "no," but we liked "Sideways" and we like to pretend, too. If you're like us - or if you are a bonafide wide afficianado - here's where to do it: The Seaport Hotel today, Sunday Feb. 10. It's the final day of a three-day weekend bash - also one of Boston's classiest events. If you've got a nose for the grape - and a bit of cash - you're going to want to be there. It's the 17th Annual Boston Wine Expo at the Seaport Hotel's Convention Center. On Sunday, the hotel plays host to the largest trade and consumer wine event in the country. The organizers are calling it "an unparalleled educational and entertaining wine and food experience." The Grand Tasting showcases over 450 international and domestic wineries from 13 countries pouring over 1,800 different wines. Special features include an exclusive Grand Cru Wine Lounge; Seminars for all levels of wine-lovers, led by world-renowned wine experts such as Kevin Zraly, author of the largest selling wine book Windows on the World Complete Wine Course and Wine Spectator’s Gloria Maroti Frazee; Celebrity Chef Demonstrations featuring Kevin Crawly, recently seen on the Food Network Challenge Series and Roseann Tully, CEO and Editorial Director of Intermezzo magazine. It's $95. The continually updated wine list is available on the website below. One Seaport Lane, 877-946-3976 www.wineexpoboston.com
