Hidden French Gems Wine Tasting

While most wine drinkers know and love French wine, they will also probably stick to the wine regions that they know - and since French wine labels can be mysterious, branching out to try new bottles can be a bit of a gamble. If you are equipped with a few tips and tricks, you can find some excellent under-the-radar wines to please your palate and wallet alike! Learn about those hidden French gems and the tricks to find them at our next wine class.

About the instructor:

The class will be taught by Corey Davison, who has years of experience in every aspect of the wine world. Before becoming an assistant wine buyer at Dave's Fresh Pasta in Davis Square, he worked at a beloved Pennsylvania vineyard and a pioneering urban winery in Philadelphia. Corey spent two years learning the ins and outs of wine importing, distribution, and sales with the boutique natural wine importer Mise Wines. Nowadays, you might find him pairing and presenting wines for the hit pop-up restaurant Bon Ami and teaching classes in the area.
