Learn about the physiology of taste and how to evaluate acidity, tannin, residual sugar (RS) and other structural elements of wine. Start building your wine description vocabulary. Attend this fun session to gain confidence in knowing what kind of wines you like and how to describe them. Or use this as the start of your journey in preparing for entry to mid-level wine exams.
This workshop can be taken as your first class, but please consider taking Wine 101 and Intro to World Wines as a primer for what will be covered here.
This workshop may be taken as part of our Intro Series or individually a la carté. Your workshop fees can be applied to the cost of the full series if you would like to continue on. Payment plans are available for the full series.
Group discounts are available. Contact help@sfwineschool.com for more information.
We've recently invested in some serious AV technology upgrades to create an integrated Hybrid Room/Zoom experience for all students. Both "Roomers" and "Zoomers" are able to engage with us and each other during these live classes. Recordings are also available after the class. Whether you are excited to return to our beautiful venue in person with wine in your glass or are enjoying the convenience of home learning with a tasting kit, you can choose the experience that's right for YOU!
