Frugal Forum Series at Chelsea Wine Vault Few other wine shops give you as much bang for your buck as we do and that goes for our wine classes as well. Our Frugal Forums series of wine classes are $35 and under. It’s an affordable way to learn about wine, discover new wines, and have a great night on the town. Old World vs. New World A great debate raging in the wine world is over the differences between wine coming from the Old World (Europe) and those from the New World (The Americas and Down Under); wines that speak of the earth and a sense of place versus fruit-driven, big and bold wine styles. In recent years the influence of "flying winemakers" like Michel Rolland and American wine writers like Robert Parker has prompted more and more Old World wine makers to produce wines in a New World style; while increasing sophistication and maturity has inspired growing numbers of New World producers to emulate Old World models. The old definitions are quickly breaking down, creating an international wine scene brimming with unique and eclectic wines for us to imbibe…a truly win-win scenario for us all. Join us in a fascinating comparison tasting and you can decide which style suits you best! Please note: Your final credit card charge will NOT include a shipping fee for purchasing this class online even though a shipping charge will appear in the shopping cart. *Cancellation with full refund is accepted up to 48 hours prior to event date. No refunds are given for cancellations after this point. $35 per person WEBSITE: Chelsea Wine Vault |
