🧠 Lecture: "Understanding Wine: Taste, Palate & Flavor"
🎤 Speaker: Professor Torrey Grant
From what happens in the vineyard to the winery to what goes on in your mouth, what makes wine such an intriguing beverage?!
Join us for an engaging evening as Professor Torrey Grant demystifies the world of wine, guiding you through how grapes, terroir, and winemaking techniques shape what you experience in the glass. You’ll explore how taste and aroma work together, why certain wines pair so well with unexpected foods, and how to better understand your own palate—so you can choose wines you truly enjoy.
