Teach & Taste Wine is the second wine tasting workshop series organized by Time For Wine at the Carrollwood Cultural Center. Through a series of 6 classes, wine guide Charles Visalli will teach you how to taste wine, wine countries, how to choose a wine, food pairing, and much more.
The first workshop of this series will begin on September 10 with "Aromas and Bouquets of Wine". This class will give you the opportunity to visualize, smell and compare the various aromas to the wines being tasted. This hand-on experience is very beneficial to anyone wanting to understand why and how a wine taste, give off a certain sweet aroma and sometime has a woody or oaky taste.
Attendees will learn about wines of the world through a series of hands-on tastings paired with appropriate nibbles such as fruit, sweets, crackers and chocolates.
