- The major grape varieties and wine regions of France, including red and white Burgundy and Bordeaux, delicious wines of the Rhone Valley, Alsace and the Loire Valley.
- The major characteristics of these regions and varieties by tasting wines that clearly show the classic grapes and the typical style.
- Important French wine terms on the labels such as Cuvee and Grand Cru, and how to interpret them to make an educated guess about how the wines will taste.
- How to ask the right questions about French wines when you visit a wine shop or when you see them on a wine list at a restaurant.
- The ways in which French cheese and wine can elevate your tasting experience when combined.
- Pairing suggestions for French wines and the principles behind these suggestions.
Wines:
- A minimum of six different French wines. Each wine will come from a different region or made from different varieties so you can learn how the climate, geographic, and historic grapes influence a distinctive style.
- As learning is an important goal, we serve each wine in a different glass, with all six glasses on the table for each participant. This is a great opportunity for comparison.
Food:
We will have a selection of artisanal French cheeses and bread to enjoy with the wines.
