Ever wonder why some wines taste rich and bold while others are crisp and delicate? It's not chance — it's craft. Join wine educator John Tato and Wine Junction for Behind the Bottle, an intimate guided tasting experience that pulls back the curtain on how winemakers deliberately shape the flavor in every bottle.

You'll taste through a curated selection of wines while discovering the key decisions winemakers make — from grape variety and fermentation to aging and blending — and how each one transforms what ends up in your glass. Light snacks included.

Perfect for curious wine drinkers at any level. Space is limited.
