The Willmont Wine Club started with an inspiration to provide a gathering place where people could come together for special occasions and simple events. My name is Joy Pacheco and my small home on Willmont Street served as a venue for everything from poetry readings and political debates to individual performances and neighborhood parties. Always present were a few good, if not exceptional, bottles of wine to share.
As the inspiration grew, so did the location when I later moved downtown in the heart of Rochester's Saint Paul Quarter.
Here club members and guests experience wine tastings, musical performances, dinner parties, book signings, live theater
and a host of other events, all in the comfort of home.
