Champagne isn’t just for special occasions — it’s one of the most versatile food wines in the world. In this fun and eye-opening tasting, you’ll discover why sommeliers love pairing Champagne with crave-worthy comfort foods, and how salt, fat, crunch, and umami can make great sparkling wine taste even better.

Through guided pairings, you’ll learn the simple principles behind these surprisingly perfect matches, explore different Champagne styles, and leave with the confidence to create your own elevated (and deliciously fun) pairings at home. Perfect for both serious wine lovers and anyone who believes great wine should always be seriously fun.

The tasting lineup will be announced closer to the event, once final selections are confirmed.

This class will be held in person at the Capital Wine School on Friday, June 5 from 6:30pm – 8:00pm. Space is limited so register now to reserve your spot.

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.

By purchasing your ticket(s), you agree to our payment, refund, cancellation, and reschedule policy.
