Description
Are you skilled in the sensory evaluation of wine? The practice of wine tasting requires a formalized methodology that includes understanding perceived wine flavors, aromas, and characteristics of wine. Sommeliers understand and can explain the structure, style, balance and quality of wine, as well identify winemaking flaws. This class is a must for those seeking to improve or master their wine tasting skills and knowledge. Includes guided blind tasting of 6 wines.
This individual class may be taken as part of our Somm Essentials certificate program or individually à la carte. Your class fees can be applied to the cost of the program tuition if you would like to continue on. Payment plans are available for the full series. Those who would like to attend classes online and forgo the wine tastings can apply SKIPTHEWINE at checkout to many online classes for 40% off. SEE ALL WEBONLY CLASSES
