About this Event
Ever wonder why one glass of white wine tastes like biting into a crisp green apple, while another feels rich and buttery or bursts with lush tropical fruit? The secret isn’t memorizing vineyard maps—it’s learning how to read the structural clues and identifying the aromas in your glass.
On March 1st, join expert Wine Educator Beth Bornstein from West Side Grapes for an engaging, hands-on masterclass designed to tune your palate. Instead of guessing grape names, we’ll dive into the three defining styles of white wine:
- Fruity & Vibrant: Bright, fruit-forward profiles that jump out of the glass.
- Mineral-Driven: Crisp, flinty wines shaped by ocean breezes and stone soils.
- Rich & Oaky: Smooth, full-bodied whites crafted with barrel aging and texture.
Through a blind flight of three mystery white wines paired with a selection of delicious savory appetizers, you'll learn step-by-step how acidity, sweetness, and oak transform what you taste. Stripping away the labels removes all bias, giving you the vocabulary and confidence to order exactly what you like every single time.
Space is limited to keep the tasting interactive, so reserve your seat today!
