The Spokane Enological Society is a non-profit organization governed by an elected
18-member board of directors.  The purpose of the society is to provide its members with opportunities to gain further knowledge and appreciation of wine.  Functions are social and educational, usually centered on tasting, comparing and evaluating wines.

Membership is capped at 335 people.  Guests are welcome to attend, with or without member invitation, two events per year.  Non-members on the waiting list may attend any tasting or special event when seating capacity allows for them.
