This class is part of our Culinary Certificate program.  It is open to everyone to attend.  If you would like more information about our Certificate program, please click here.

We'll taste several examples of the noble grapes and how climate/soil affects their flavor.  We'll also discuss how to figure out your favorite style of wine (are you a crisp a.k.a. dry wine kind of person or a fruit-forward a.k.a. sweet wine kind of person).  Finally, we'll learn how to read a wine menu and order perfectly every time!  

We'll pair at 7-8 types of wine with outstanding cheeses from our neighbor at the Houston Dairymaids.  Also, a classic Tomato Basil Soup and blondie, milk, and dark chocolate brownies to get the best idea of how wine flavors change with food.
