Symposia - Taste Like a Sommelier

— 04/19/2024; Friday from 7 pm to 9 pm in our Tasting Room – Symposia: Taste Like a Sommelier. Have you ever wondered how some people can look at a glass of wine, sniff it, take the smallest sip, and tell you what it is, where it comes from, and sometimes even who made it? It’s not magic, it’s just a few basic steps… and a whole lot of practice. We’ll show you how it’s done and get you started on the journey. During the class you’ll learn the secrets and then we’ll put them to use on three “blind” wines. Tickets aree $50 each ($40 each for our wine club family) which covers the lecture, complimentary wine, and lots of good fellowship with wine lovers like yourself. Held on our beautiful tropical lanai, or indoors if the weather is uncooperative. Tickets are available in our Tasting Room, in our online Wine Shop, or at the door.

Support us by purchasing wine by the glass or bottle.
