Pages of food magazines have been devoted to the question of which wine to pair with Thanksgiving dinner. We say “don’t bother with wine at all!”
In this class you’ll get to mix and sample a variety of cocktails that are perfect for your Thanksgiving entertaining and then take into the upcoming winter holidays. We’ll be echoing flavors from the table, as well as exploring punches and drinks that can be scaled up to handle the crowd.
Discover the amazing varieties of French wine. France is the origin of some of the best loved & well-known wines. Discern the pleasure of classic wines from the land of 246 kinds of cheese!
This experience is offered in partnership with The Wine Counselor®.
