Do you like wine but are not sure how to describe what you prefer? If so this is the class for you!
Freshen up your wine knowledge at our “Taste Like A Somm” introductory wine class. Discover why you like what you like and how to pick out a great bottle the next time you’re out to dinner or at a wine shop.
Description of Class
A corkscrew and a glass is all it takes to “Taste Like A Somm.” Through a series of blind tastings guided by our Sommelier John Filkins, you’ll interact with 5 different wines and explore each of their flavor profiles translating what you see, smell, and taste into “wine lingo.”
From bold reds to crisp whites, you’ll learn about each wine you enjoyed and go over how you would order them in a restaurant or wine shop all within a virtual, interactive environment open for questions along the way.
At the end of the class, you’ll have the chance to test your knowledge as a grape guru during a final blind tasting. Post your best guess on social media and tag @OfficinaDC with the winner receiving one of John Filkin’s favorite bottles to enjoy at home.
