Taste, Learn & Indulge: Holiday Wine, Cheese & Chocolate Pairing Experience

Sunday, December 28th | 1:00–3:00 PM
Negociant Winery | Hillcrest Urban Winery, San Diego

Celebrate the season with a cozy, flavor-filled afternoon at Negociant Winery. Our Taste, Learn & Indulge — Holiday Edition is a guided pairing experience designed to deepen your wine knowledge while embracing the joy of holiday indulgence.

You’ll be welcomed with festive bubbles, then guided through a flight of five of our most loved wines, each paired with artisan cheeses and holiday-inspired chocolate bites. Along the way, we’ll explore how sweetness, salt, fat, and texture change the way wine tastes — unlocking pairing secrets you can use all winter long.

Perfect for wine lovers, holiday guests in town, date afternoons, and anyone wanting a delicious, educational escape between Christmas and New Year’s.
