Wine Styles of the World: A Blind Tasting Series

Learn about wine styles beyond red and white while developing your blind tasting skills. This four-class series, created by Master Sommelier David Glancy, focuses on natural, sparkling, rosé, and fortified (sweet) wines produced around the globe. Rather than emphasizing a single region, you’ll learn about the diversity in regions, grapes, and production methods that influence these four styles — and how their attributes might be perceived in the glass. 


Whether for certification, career advancement, or pure enjoyment, this unique series will help you understand wine styles from a broader, global perspective.  No prerequisites are required for this series, but if you want to get started with an entry-level introduction to blind wine tasting, check out Intro to Blind Tasting, part of our Intro to Wine Series, or Tasting, Chemistry, and Flaws.
