Throughout class, we’ll sip and savor five high-quality artisanal wines paired with five carefully selected cheeses, accompanied by an assortment of figs, pears, grapes, apples, dates, honey, cranberries, olives, pickles, strawberries, and jams to enhance the tasting experience. Whether you are completely new to wine and cheese or already passionate about both, this class is all about discovering new favorites, connecting with others, and falling in love with the perfect pairing.
