Description
New to the sensory pleasures of wine? Wish the names on a wine list meant something? Trying to find work in an upscale restaurant, but don't know how to pour or suggest food pairings? Join us Monday nights as we engage all our senses in learning about the four major styles of wines from around the world: soft whites, dry whites, easy-drinking reds, and powerful reds. We will taste and explore the nuances of four to five wines per week; by the course's end, you'll be able to navigate any wine store or list with confidence, know which foods pair best with which wines, and understand why we drink some wines when they're young and others when they're old. We'll also discuss wine making techniques and how to store wine at home. Please bring a photo ID that indicates your age to class. Special fee covers all tastings and light appetizers.
