About this event

It all began in northern France, where Benedictine monks toiled away for generations, in both vineyard and cellar, to create the sparkling elixir we all love today. Originally considered a flaw, this recipe has now travelled far beyond the Abby’s of Champagne to produce sparklers of quality and value all over the world.

Join me for a tasting exploring the wonderful world of sparkling wine! In this tasting, we dive into the climate, geography and production methods necessary for quality sparkling wine production. We will chart the course from still wine to the finished product, all while learning facts about the region and winemaker.

7 wines + a light spread of antipasto

Tastings are intimate with a maximum of 14 attendees. I address all levels of wine experience at the table: newbies will gain foundational knowledge and tasting skills, while experienced palates will add to their education. I serve 7-8 wines, poured in 3 flights of 1.25oz pours, leaving a little left in the bottle to revisit. All classes come with placemats and a booklet featuring the line-up, maps and information on the tasting. A light spread of antipasto is provided.
