This fun, exploratory class introduces you to delicious but lesser-known wines that share similarities with the bottles you already enjoy. We’ll highlight alternatives to today’s most popular varieties, explain what makes them comparable, and show you how they fit familiar flavor and structure profiles.

Perfect for the “cautious adventurer,” this session helps you expand your palate without straying too far from your comfort zone—discovering new favorites along the way.

This tasting is in person only at the Capital Wine School. Please note that the building in which we are located does not have an elevator, and there are several sets of stairs to navigate to get to our classrooms on the second floor.
