Bubbles!

In this 1½ hour interactive journey, you will transition through three different modules with a small group while tasting 8-9 wines.

Topics include: All things Champagne – we’ll explore the beautiful regions of Champagne, their primary grapes, and how this sought after wine is created. You’ll learn more about terms like assemblage, riddling, dosage, disgorgement and better understand the various dry/sweetness levels and how they are achieved.

There’s more to sparkling wine than Champagne! We will review additional sparkling winemaking methods, the main regions producing sparkling wine, and the various sparkling wine styles. Think Cava, Prosecco, Cremant, etc.

Just like still wines, certain styles of sparkling can make even the most mundane food sing! You’ll learn some guidelines about what works and what doesn’t in pairing sparkling wine with foods and get the chance to enjoy a few of your own pairings as well.

By the end of your journey, all your friends will want YOU to pick the bubbles at your next dinner or event!

Three sessions on 2/10/24: 2:00-3:30, 2:30-4:00, 3:00-4:30
