You've heard that red wine pairs with steak and white wine with fish ... but why?

 

Salty or sour properties in food can completely change the taste of a wine, for better or worse. Each monthly "Pairings" class will focus on a taste sensation (salty, sour, bitter, sweet) and feature a group of wines. You are the taste tester to see what works and what doesn't. After this class you'll be the go-to person for wine pairings!

This Month:

Sweet and Pungent Flavors with Tuscan Wines

 Pungent Spice (black pepper)

Sweet Spice (cloves)

Sweetness (sugar)

 **What is First Sip Fridays? Have your first drink with us! The second, third and fourth Friday of each month will feature an hour long wine class to kick start your weekend. Stop by, enjoy some great wine and learn a little for only $19/person! Think of it as an educational happy hour.
