About this Event
For generations, the Catholic Church controlled the production of wine throughout France. We can thank Catholic monks for many of the advancements of wine production, especially in Burgundy and Champagne. The Church invested great time and resources on establishing vineyard sites and researching winemaking methods that we continue to use today.
Join us for a casual seated wine class where we will discuss the history of the Catholic Church in the French wine industry and taste some of our favorite representations from the styles that were created from their ancient research with our Wine Director, Erin Dudley
Included with your ticket:
- Seated wine class with certified sommelier and Neighborhood Restaurant Group Wine Director, Erin Dudley CSW
- Tasting of six fine wines from France
- Small serving of artisanal cheese and accoutrements
