While we’re trapped in our houses, I’ve been been thinking about launching a virtual wine education to pass the time. I’m not a teacher nor am I a certified sommelier. However, I’ve been studying wine and writing about it for more than 30 years. I’ve learned a lot along the way and have done several wine tasting programs in the past couple of years.
If you would be interested in participating, drop me an email and I’ll put you on the list. Just use the comment feature at the bottom.
The programs will be done on Zoom. You don’t need to download the program, but there is a free version should you decided to use it on your device. You’ll need a device with a camera and microphone.
The first one will be on how wine is made. I jumped past this lesson when I first got involved in wine and then found that I needed to know more about the winemaking process if I was ever going to understand what I was drinking. How did the winemaker get that red wine so dark? How did the tannin get there? What do they mean by malolatic fermentation and sur lies aging?
Please join me for this free program — while it’s still free.
