TASTING WINE
INSTRUCTOR: Edouard Giessinger
BRING TO FIRST CLASS: Two 6-8oz. wine glasses, pen, paper, bread or
crackers and your yellow enrollment receipt.
"Do you simply drink wine, or do you taste wine?" Smell
and taste are essential and integral to the enjoyment of wine. Students
will be exposed to a wide range of wines (dry, medium dry, fruity wines
and ports). We will explore which wines compliment which foods and some
common myths..."Why shouldn't you drink a Cabernet Franc (a red
wine) with salmon?" (I would.) The course will also touch on the
health benefits of wines and the process of winemaking (growing/purchasing
of grapes, choosing equipment, fermenting, aging and storing).
NOTE: You must be at least 21 years of age to enroll in this class.
