Description

An in-depth look at wine and the tasting process. This series will grow your wine knowledge and educate your palate. Our wine specialist will guide you through an in-depth tour of five wines per class. Topics will include terroir, the wine making process, growing regions, proper tasting techniques, varietal identification and more. Each series will have a centralized theme. If you're feeling extra "wine-tastic" please join us for our more casual wine tasting following this event at 8:30pm. Courses can be taken individually or as a full series. Those who complete the entire series will receive a certificate of completion. Current Series: Old World Wines May 7th - Sparkling - We kick off with bubbles to celebrate our return!
