Wine tasting is the sensory examination and evaluation of wine. While the practice of wine tasting is as ancient as its production, modern, professional wine tasters (such as sommeliers or buyers for retailers) use a constantly evolving, specialized terminology that is used to describe the range of perceived flavors, aromas and general characteristics of a wine. Knowing the history of the wine, the grape, the appellation the wine came from, as well as the chemistry behind things is not going to make you a better taster. For that, there is no substitute for actual experience. $20 per participant - cash only.
Purpose: Sample a selection of wines at each session and select candidates for the Member's Choice Wine of the Month
