About this Event

Join us for a delicious ride through the world of wine and charcuterie, where every sip meets its soulmate. From bold reds to crisp whites, we’ll pair each pour with the perfect bite – think velvety cheeses, smoky meats, and zesty accompaniments that’ll make your taste buds sing.

You’ll learn the art (and science) of pairing like a pro, discovering why creamy Brie loves a buttery Chardonnay and how a spicy Syrah dances with smoky chorizo. But this isn’t your average wine class – expect a lot of laughs, a little mischief, and plenty of "oohs" and "aahs" as we nibble our way to pairing perfection.

Whether you're a wine newbie or a seasoned sipper, this is your ticket to a palate-pleasing evening of flavor, fun, and fabulous company.
