What to expect

You'll gather in a relaxed setting where the sommelier walks you through each wine without jargon or intimidation. They'll explain what you're tasting—the fruit, structure, finish—in plain language. Each glass comes with a complementary cheese to show how food and wine interact. The booklet you take away serves as a handy reference for what you've covered. Expect about an hour of talking, tasting, and learning by doing rather than lecturing.
