Delbarton Parents of Graduates (DPGA) socialized with old friends and tasted wines at Avec des Amis, the annual DPGA Wine Tasting held in Old Main on Saturday, April 30, 2011. The popular event has become a favorite way to reconnect with Delbarton friends each spring. Delbarton parents Marlene and John Iaciofano, and Mary Alice and Fred Lawless, chaired the event, and Headmaster Br. Paul Diveny, OSB, guided the group through Italy's various viticultural regions as guests sampled European wine selections. Hors d'oeuvres and an elegant buffet dinner were designed to complement the wines, and all agreed that the event is a highlight of the DPGA calendar.
