Sparkling Wine 101

Overview:

There’s a common tendency to refer to all sparkling wines as “Champagne.” While Champagne is certainly the most famous, it only constitutes 12% of the world’s sparkling wines! So what about that other 82%?

In this class, we will start by understanding the production side of sparkling wine- typical grapes, production methods & key styles. We will then learn about & taste the key sparkling wines of the world, including Champagne, Crémant, Cava & Prosecco.

You don’t have to break the bank to enjoy a fabulous sparkling wine. With the information you learn in this class, you will know what to look for when buying sparkling wines & be empowered to branch out & try something new! If you’re lucky, you may even learn how to (safely) saber a bottle!
