On Friday, March 6th, the Institute for Education celebrated Distinguished Fellow, Dr. R. David Edelman’s inclusion in the Forbes 30 Under 30 list. Coach Kathy Kemper, CEO and Founder honored the occasion with a rare 1992 Burgundy La Tache. Reading from Robert Parker’s review, Coach Kemper emphasized the La Tache’s ruby color, sweet, tangy raspberry, blackcurrant, leather, and spice aromas. Refined, and powerful, the wine is expansive and magnificently delineated. Guests enjoyed the surreal and celestial aromas that lingered on the palate long after the last sip.
The attendees included IFE Diplomatic Steward H.E. Johan C. Verbeke, Embassy of the Kingdom of Belgium, IFE Leadership Joanne Ke, Peter Ruffo, Johanna Shelton, George Zaidan, and IFE friends H.E. Ritva Koukku-Ronde, Embassy of Finland, Commissioner Terrell McSweeny, FTC, Ambassador John Dinger, and Mrs. Gouri Mirpuri.
