Let’s give the wine spritzer its rightful place in the cocktail world. This class features all our favorite bubbly wines: Champagne, Cava and Prosecco, with pairings made into cocktails! Who doesn’t love bubbles? Learn how to find great bubbles without breaking the bank, what to look for when selecting a bottle, how sparkling wines are made, and why Champagne costs a fortune but Prosecco is so affordable.

We’ll do a little mixology thing to show you what to use and how to make that bubbles experience so much fun! You’ll get recipes for the Persimmon Cardamom Spritz, the Bees Knees Wine Cocktail, and more. There’s sure to be a wine {and hence, a wine cocktail} to fit every one’s taste.

Too much of anything is bad, but too much Champagne is just right.

… But Should Be.

Once every decade or so a wine grape comes along that transcends region, winery, or even common sense to become a brand unto itself. Malbec has joined that illustrious club of brand unto-itself varietals. Over the past few years we’ve introduced hundreds of guests to the U.S. darling of wine (Argentinean Malbec). This year, we’re continuing the trend and expanding to the wines of Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Bolivia, Peru, and Brazil. Come taste the hottest new grapes you’ve never tried, including the healthiest grape in the world (a glass is like a 1-1/2 hour workout in the gym) coming from South America where they have the perfect dirt.

This tasting is for die hard wine geeks. We’ll reveal the best lessons learned from our own wine education as we went about learning to become winemakers. After 6 months of studying, calculating, measuring, blending and, of course, drinking wine, we’ll talk about some of the coolest things we learned. We’ll break down the metrics of judging wines by the 100 point scale and teach you how to get perfect pairings with food nibblers as we use eight 90-99 point wines to discuss each lesson.

Event Details

Is it possible to pair desserts with our favorite mainstream wines? Better be careful, some of these flavors are in definite conflict … but it can be done. While you may be hard pressed to find anyone upset with the wrong wine & dessert pairing (it is wine and dessert after all) it is nice to show off a little knowledge when entertaining guests, not to mention the piece of mind in knowing that what you are serving won’t be conflicting. Come try desserts and wines and learn why some do and some don’t go well together.

Event Details

Virginia Versus The World™ Thomas Jefferson had a vision … of vineyards lacing the Virginia landscape. And, along with the vines certain economic benefits – not to mention the resulting prestige, pleasure and refinement of enjoying fine wine. Nearly 300 farm wineries now dot the Commonwealth landcape. These special farms are putting Virginia on the map in the world wine market, protecting farmland with sustainable agriculture, and playing a major role in the State’s economic development as a burgeoning tourism draw. The wineries of Virginia continue to gain national and international recognition. Do you think Virginia wine is ready to go head-to-head with world class wine? Be the judge and jury in an exciting blind tasting as Virginia’s best varietals are pitted against their international competitors in a blind comparison tasting. Come judge for your self how well (or not so well) Virginia stacks up in the world wine arena.

The big class we swore we would never attempt all at once. Come take the triple threat challenge – we’ll taste all of our favorites: cheeses and chocolates and wines all together and see what it does to our palate. Somebody’s got to do it right? If you get the right wine to complement the right cheese or chocolate it can be a match made in heaven!
