This is a great class for anyone interested in wine, from the novice to the knowledgeable. There is always something new to learn when it comes to wine, new flavors, new appellations, and new wineries. And you'll taste some new beauties in this exceptional series! Come by yourself and make some new wine friends, or bring a partner that doesn’t know as much as you do, but wants to learn. A great time will be had by all in this spirited and fun class, with plenty of room for everyone.
