Event Details
 


Winery U! is the first of its kind among Texas Hill Country Wineries, offering a series of decidedly non-pretentious classes designed to wring the snobbishness out of wine. (If you’re still a snob after graduating from Winery U! we won’t hold it against you!)


Sure, there are some serious parts to making wine, but what fun is that? We’re all about having a good time when it comes to learning what a winemaker does from start to finish, using all your senses to appreciate the fruit of the vine, getting your wine -- and whine -- questions answered, and learning how food and wine can play nice together (and we don’t mean dance the tango!).


What's in a Glass or What's in a Class?


The first class, Wine FAQ, held on January 12th was a hit! Here's what people are saying.


  • "Excellent and informative"

  • "I can't wait till the next class and the next glass!"



    Wine FAQ: Answers To Questions That You Never Thought to Ask

    Let us demystify wine for you. Have you ever wondered how do all those smells and flavors get into wine? What does ‘dry wine’ mean? Why there are different bottles for different wines? What is the ‘real’ difference between screw top and cork? Why do people swirl and sniff wine? Why is French wine so famous? What are legs of a wine? Why won’t just any glass do for wine? Decanting is what? What is a sommelier and why are they important? Well you get the picture and we’re sure that you have some of your own that may even stump some of our experts!

    Saturday, September 20th:

    All classes are held on Saturday, 10:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m at Dry Comal Creek Vineyards
