Class Description:
Let’s learn about wine and wine-tasting with a professional: wine educator and vintner Shriti Plimpton. The goal of the class will be to gain a working knowledge of the various grape varietals and then gauge what styles of wine appeal most to you and why. We’ll cover a lot of ground tonight and we’ll get to taste several delicious wines. Let's start with the foundations and become versed in how to analyze and discuss wines as we dive deep into the various types and styles of wine. We will then learn how to taste wine as well as education on the basics of how wine is made, how to read labels and some wine vocabulary. We’ll also understand the basics of how to select wines you’ll enjoy, the wine-making process (including sparkling wines), how to read a wine label and a wine list, how to taste wine, proper glassware, how to open a bottle, what factors contribute to the quality of a wine, and what the major wine-producing regions are. Throughout the evening, we’ll taste several wines so that you can practice identifying different varietals. It’s going to be a fun night of building a foundation in wine appreciation with some tasty nibbles that pair well with the wine you will try. All registrants for this class must be 21 years of age as of the date of the class.
