Visiting Professor Kent Fortner, owner and winemaker at Road 31 Wine Co, will share four different Pinot Noirs each offering different styles of oak - new French, 3-yr-old French, new Hungarian, and 3-yr-old Hungarian. Then you will taste a new Pinot and an aged Pinot to discover the way oak affects aging. A sneak peek into the early stages of wine creation. Learn to understand how oak affects a wine so you know if you'll like it, plus taste some amazing Pinots.
Fox School of Wine invites you to a fun-filled, guided wine tasting on Main Street. Executive Sommelier and Fox School of Wine Headmistress, Kirsten Fox, and her Wine Professors will present a well-paced tasting of five, approachable, under-$40 hidden gem wines that you may have overlooked in the aisles at your local liquor store.
You'll receive a tasting pour of each wine, stories and history about the winery, grapes, and region, food pairing ideas... plus our signature Blind Tasting Challenge, when we pour you a taste of a wine you've already explored in class to see if you can guess which one it is.
Don't we all deserve a little recess time?
