About this Event
Join us for an effervescent journey into the world of sparkling wines, where every bubble tells a story. In this captivating tasting class, we’ll explore the fascinating science, artistry, and history behind sparkling wines from around the globe. From the elegance of French Champagne to the crisp vibrancy of Spanish Cava, the fruity charm of Italian Prosecco, and the innovative styles of New World sparkling wines, you’ll discover the unique characteristics that set these celebratory beverages apart.
As we taste a curated selection of sparkling wines, you’ll learn about the intricate winemaking methods that create the magic of bubbles, including traditional, tank, and ancestral techniques. Dive into the differences between Brut, Extra Dry, and Demi-Sec, and uncover how factors like terroir, grape variety, and aging shape the flavor and texture of each glass.
This hands-on experience will also include pairing insights, showing how sparkling wines elevate foods from salty snacks to decadent desserts. Whether you’re a seasoned enthusiast or just starting to appreciate the sparkle, this class will leave you with a new appreciation for the bubbles in your glass and the stories they bring to life.
Raise your flute and toast to an evening of discovery, laughter, and sparkling delights. What’s in a bubble? Let’s find out together!
