Event Overview
What's biodynamic? Are screwcaps any good? What temp should you cellar your whites and reds? Don't luscious, glass-gripping legs mean a wine is good quality?
Somewhere along the way, wine became an elitist pastime-- a hobby that required one to know the do's and don't, the 'right' from 'wrong'. In the meantime, the rest of the world humbly sipped away, hanging onto questions that never seemed to get answered.
Well, now's your chance to find out all you wanted to know! And no, for those who are wondering, actual cherries and leather do not find their way into the fermentation vessel... usually. Bring these and so many other questions into a safe space surrounded by curiosity, not judgement. Don't worry, you will be greeted with a glass to calm those nerves...
Minimum age
All ages welcome
Prerequisites
Must be 21 years of age. Must sign a waiver and hold harmless agreement upon arrival. Must have a sense of curiosity and interest in wine. Must not judge others. A question in mind is not required, but very well-received.
