You will learn the grape varietal, the country it is from, the winery that produces it and the notes in the taste (citrus, spice, dry, sweet, etc.). They YOU guess the cost. This isn’t a competition, just a lot of fun and a new way of looking at WINE. The wine may be less expensive or more expensive than you think. Tom is ALWAYS saying you should DRINK WHAT YOU LIKE and not be concerned with the type of wine (I don’t like red wines); the country it comes from (French wines are too expensive) or the cost (You can only get grape juice for under $10.00). Snacks, Bottled water (1/person), HANDOUTS with lots of wines like the ones you’ll taste tonight and a Cold Buffet (meats/cheeses/fruit/veggies/ breads/sweets) included in the cost. Remember, you won’t believe it when Tom answers the question “How much is it?”

Tom will cover what makes each wine unique and representative of it’s varietal, flavors, finishes and taste. Then you can guess what kind of wine it is: Merlot? Grenache? Pinot Gris? Chardonnay? In this way, you have NO preconceived notions like “I don’t like Syrahs.” Tom will then reveal the varietal, country, winery, year and cost. It’s NOT a competition. It’s just FUN and a new way to “see” wine. It could even change your mind about what kinds of wine you like!
