Exotic Whites to Remember

Learn and appreciate the basics of white wines.

White wine is often viewed as a beginner's beverage, training wheels perhaps. It takes but a taste of Joly's Coulèe de Serrant, or Dauvissat's Chablis Les Clos, however, to appreciate that white wines can mean serious business. If you are unfamiliar with these wines and are thinking you'd rather stick to the basics, then I assure you, this is the basics. This is where it all should start. These wines tell tall tales (all true), yet they will not rock the boat, the boat of wine memories and details which has guided you thus far, no, they will, if anything, clear the air.  

The dramatics now over (no matter how genuine), I do promise this class features white wines which bring pleasure, wines that allow us to easily appreciate a sense of place, of origin, wines with inimitable flavors and textures that can only be produced in their home niche. Producers' wines likely to make an appearance include Nicolas Joly, Didier Dageneau, Franz Prager, J.L. Chave, Bonneau du Martray, Lopez Heredia, and Hermann Wiemer (Finger Lakes in the house, and it's no courtesy invitation, it's been earned). 

The cheeses will not disappoint as we sample some of the world's most distinctive wheels of fromage to discover if many successful pairings exist or if each is just better enjoyed alone. I hope you'll join us, this is the best value class we offer as the wines are notably more expensive yet the cost is only $70 to entice people to register. Thank you for your consideration!
