About the Event
Knowing the best wine to serve with food is a challenge. The right choice can turn an average meal into a spectacular feast. The wrong choice can turn a Michelin-star experience into a dumpster fire.
This class guides you through choosing the perfect food and wine pairings for any occasion as well as providing the key characteristics of varietals and the principles behind pairing them.  Learn why certain combinations work and some don’t, how to avoid common pitfalls, and how to develop successful food and wine pairings on your own
You will be tasting food & wine in class, but this is not dinner. We suggest having a light snack before class. Everyone in class is experiencing the same pairings, which means there are no substitutions. If you have dietary restrictions or allergies, please contact us before registering.
