Class Description

Description

Learn how the components and intensity of various food and wine combinations determine their pairability.

Can you create perfect pairings or are you paralyzed by the rules? Learn pairing theories and exceptions and the progression of flavors in multi-course meals. Come play with your food and wine as we taste 36 combinations and discuss each student's impressions and preferences. Challenging food ingredients will also be reviewed and how to overcome the hurdles they present. You will gain a great deal of confidence in pairing wine and food and lose your fears.

Please inform us of any dietary allergies or intolerances at the time of registration so we can accommodate your needs.
