Wine-OH! University EVERY Monday night, class begins at 8pm

Have you ever wondered where Pinot Noir Grapes grow best? Have you ever wondered why the best Rieslings come from Germany? Is there a reason Sauvignon Blanc vines are planted with Rose Bushes? Did you know that learning about a specific wine producing region can help you in your search for finding wines that best suit your pallet?

If these types of questions intrigue you, or keep you up at night, then Bigby’s Wine-OH! University is the place for you to pursue your degree in Vin-O-ology!  There will be a class lecture, wines for tasting, entertainment, specials, games to put your Viticulture education to the test, prizes, 10% off select bottles of wine and special pricing on food paring items off of our menu.

Join your host Joanne for an evening of fun and wine as you learn about the love and labor of wine makers throughout history and the world.

Classes are held Monday nights at 8pm.
