Ultimate Intro to Wine: Winespeak
From the event description:
Come to the Ultimate Intro to Wine Class, presented by Jason Kallsen. It is here that you will learn there is no single best 'tasting system' out there. Instead, you will learn how YOU taste and perceive wine, and how an understanding of wine can be influenced to a great degree on the context in which you have it. We will cover the six big varietals, along with the basics of 'Winespeak' terminology, and a healthy mix of history, geography, and philosophy. The core of the class is tasting through six wines while deciphering the key terms that wine professionals use to discuss wine.
When: Wednesday, Oct. 9, 6:30-8:30 p.m.
