Approx 21 amazing wines of SPAIN or FRANCE, all served blind and competitive style! You pick your favorites and then we reveal. Flights of three will be served for you to decide, which is which, and which is better? Learn about all the wines and get introduced to new varietals and ideas! These are top wines, not grocery store offerings.

No knowledge necessary but even the MOST advanced wine audience will love this presentation! There will be over $1000 worth of wine to be presented. Hosted by Wine Educator Ian Blackburn and filled with laugher, fun, music, and a great audience.... come alone or bring a date. A petite cheese plate with artisan bread and crackers will be served.
