Event Details

Discover the art of wine tasting. Do you simply drink wine, or do you taste wine? Anyone can drink wine, but it takes practice to be able to recognize and distinguish a wine's characteristics. Learn: * Tasting techniques and terms, * how smell and taste are integral to the enjoyment of wine, * the proper way to serve wine and what types of wine glasses are appropriate for certain wines. * And much more! Whether you are an experienced wine connoisseur or a novice, welcome to our wine tasting class with local Napa wine maker Violeta Barroso from Mar y Sol Vineyards. Attend and learn about tasting techniques and terms, how smell and taste are integral to the enjoyment of wine, the proper way to serve wine and what types of wine glasses are appropriate for certain wines, where you can go to participate in a wine tasting and how to act when you are there. Are you confused by the jargon on wine labels, not confident when ordering wine at a restaurant or making a selection for a special occasion, and unsure what the difference is between a rosé and a blush wine? Attend the Wine Tasting Class and instantly become knowledgeable. Ever wonder why some wines complement certain foods so well? Why shouldn't you drink a red wine with fish? What type of wine should you serve at your next dinner party? You will sample three different wines from Mar y Sol. Violeta Barrosso will explain the differences and educate you about it's history and what foods to pair with which wines. Location: http://www.RosewaterHall.com Cost: $20 per person.
