Blind Tasting and Trivia Game – As much fun as you can have wine tasting!
NOW ONLINE via Zoom with WINE DELIVERED!

~LIVE on Zoom~

AS MUCH FUN AS YOU CAN HAVE WINE TASTING! 🍷

A 12-wine flight (1.5-2-oz pours; in total, about 1-bottle per person!) We taste three wines at-a-time, blind! We tell you what the wines are, what they smell/taste like, but we don’t tell you which glass they’re in! Deductive tasting is a great way to learn about wine and you work to guess the right answers! To take the class up a notch; we ask timely trivia questions and engage other competitive elements. This class helps develop tasting skills to help identify wines. It’s action packed, fun, and it’s delicious!!!

Build your palate, reinforce and expand what you know, or learn it for the first time!

This class is fun for everyone 😊🍷

👃Aroma Training ✨ – learn how to smell wine with authority

👅Tasting Vocabulary 🤓- get your wine game in gear!

🌎Old World Detection 🔍 – stone, earth, etched acidity, like a fingerprint!

Understand more and build your palate! 👅🏋️‍♀️
