Introduction to Wine kicks off Willow's first tasting and lecture series, led by sommelier Jay Yoon. He'll explain how history shaped the wine map, why winemakers prize certain grapes from certain places, and how to taste with intention. Four regions, four glasses, and one evening to learn how wine works.

What you'll taste:
Bordeaux, France
Tuscany, Italy
Mendoza, Argentina
Napa Valley, United States

What Jay will cover:
A brief history of wine
How to read a wine label
The key geography of wine
The basics of how to taste wine
The meaning of terroir

This first lecture covers the fundamentals, and each one after builds on the last. Seats cap at 14 guests, so the room stays small and the questions keep coming.

Thursday, November 12 | 6:00 PM
$35 per guest, includes four wine tastings & light bites
Guests must be 21 or older
