Join Master Sommelier, Tim Gaiser, in a tour of the largest island in the Mediterranean-and its active volcano, Mount Etna!
About this Event

Sicily is White (Lotus) hot right now, and the largest island in the Mediterranean boasts numerous indigenous grape varieties grown at sea level up to 4,500 ft elevations on the slopes of its active volcano, Mount Etna--some of the highest elevations in all of Europe.

Tim Gaiser, in addition to being Diana's favorite "fun" boss when both where at Wine.com, is an internationally renowned wine expert, educator, writer, and blogger. He is one of less than 300 Master Sommeliers in the word, and has experience in practically all phases of the wine industry including online, wholesale, retail, winery, restaurants, and education. His dry wit and deep well of knowledge will have you booking your next trip to Sicily before class is dismissed!


Things to note:

• One-week cancellation policy

• Note this is a class, not a tasting: please keep chatter to a minimum

• We're within a block from both the Main Street Metra and the Main Street “EL” stops

• We usually taste seven wines in a class: please eat prior!
